Yes, ive seen them. A little wide for a practical swap.
yeah ive seen a few, but might be a while before anyone gets their hands of one of those. I think the ring gear is like 10 3/4 or something bigger than a 14bolt
I dont know how many after market parts your going to be able to get for it. A well build d60 would be just as good for our truck

this is like the 2nd or 3rd time this has been discussed on here.
the axle has 8 lugs, not 10. that was a bonehead mistake on their staff's part...the truck in the article even has 8 lugs, lol. however i think its a larger 8 lug pattern and not the conventional 8x6.5. it also is high pinion and has some interesting looking dual piston brakes, and the tie rod is behind the diff. however, it has ball joints
it would be neat to take a look at one, though.
