Where did you get it from? I need one! I want to get it before blazer bash this year, but I am having troubles finding any in my area for a decent price.

i got the front from a guy in wyoming who was selling a matching dana 70 with it, but the d70 was junk so i just typed in 456's on craigslist to find a matching rear gear set and came acrossed a guy selling a d60 rear just 20 mins from me.
craigslist seems to be the best place for me, instead of typing dana 60 also try axles or certain gear ratios
i found my rear axle listed under 456, so its amazing how many times you might pass up a axle when searching only because the seller has it listed wrong.

Feels good doesn't it??? 
now the fun part, dumping more money into it.
There are FEW things on craigslist you will find for good prices by searching. All the deals are the stuff that is mislisted. I RARELY use the search and expect to find anything. Browsing the ads is the way to go. Only really successful searches are words like BMW and suburban (but have to search burb in addition).

No kidding, only crappy part for me is that I can go through all the parts listed in a day on craigslist around here in about 1 minute.

hahaha x2 here. By the time I find a good deal elsewhere (3+ hour drive) it's already swooped up

If you find something on this side of the hill, holler. I can go look at it and buy it if you need.
I do it for hot rod guys in California.

Awesome thanks for the offer! I will start looking. The biggest problem would be getting it to Durango. I dont have a truck but I might be able to find someone who would let me borrow theirs or rent one.
Pay my fuel and put me up for a night. I love road trips.

Boy this is making me happier and happier! I could definitely do that. It is probably much easier and cheaper to find parts up in the denver area.

That's just the start. You still need high steer, a Detroit, 35 spline outers, new hubs or flanges, some armor(Razor back) and possibly some non neck down inners.
You don't really need any of that. It just happens.

That would be a 3" steering block for a stock steering setup.
