I took apart my "new" Dana 60 front (single rear wheels)after installing it, and it's a mess. I need 2 new hubs (Not locking hubs, but the hub that the rotor fastens to and the berings and locking hubs fit into). Where can I find these? I know there are a hot item used, so I might have to fork over the money and get them new. Anyone besides a GM dealer have these? Anyone know of any around? I have to get this thing up and going.

Thanks,

Eric M.
 
Hmm....Do ya mean the lockouts? Or the hub assembly that the lockouts fit into? /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif /forums/images/graemlins/ears.gif
 
Looks like at one time a bering and race spun in one of the hubs. The race does not fit very tight. It works, but not tight enough for my liking. The other one must've had the same problem but it looks like the race spun up to where the seal installs. The race fits OK, but the seal won't fit properly.

i could fix them for you , if you want but it would take awhile . ... dont throw them away ill take them and fix them if you dont want them . ill pay shipping and stuff .
 
How do you fix them? Probably wouldn't work for me, I've gotta get the truck up and running, but I'm curious and could use these as a spare. What would it cost?

Thanks,

im not sure of the cost . but at the shop where i work we fix stuff like this all the time . probly weld or braze them up and then re-machine them to size. we charge 55$ an hour .
 
Ahhhh....you need the bearing hub. /forums/images/graemlins/thumb.gif

If you go to gmpartsdirect.com and type in part number #15635530 in the box, they will show you the price for a brand spanking new D60 bearing hub. /forums/images/graemlins/thumb.gif
 
HUB & DIS

does this mean the diconnect is included for your $297 ???
 
Good God, tell me that's the price for the gold plated version.

What makes GM think they can charge that kind of money for a chunk of metal.

I read recently (either here or PBB) that some shop (not Dynatrac) had bought the molds from Dana and were now producing the GM bearing hubs. I think they were selling them on Ebay for $150 each (no rotors).

Sorry, I don't remember who it was but I do some searching...
 
I've been watching e-Bay. I haven't seen anything like that. If you see or hear anything more, let me know. I'd jump on new ones for that price.

Thanks,

Actually, that price is cheaper than anybody else I know of for brand spanking new bearing hubs.

If you went to your local dealer and had them order them, their price would be closer to the list price on the GM Parts Direct site. /forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif

So, that price on the site is pretty fair and cheap considering they are brand new and come with the races already installed. /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif
 
Damn, looks like they raised the price $70 a pair. Unless they will still do the old price.
