1031 K-30 truck, Dana 60 with 4,120 miles.
Are these pictures, cracks of the pinion area of the housing?

Casting seem. That's okay

 

[pomai]

Are you sure? ,
very depress about this.
I already have a D60 in my blazer but wanted to install this 1031 D60 with a grizzly locker into it?

Casting marks only. No cracks. Run it.

x10 casting seam .

I got a bare housing in the shop now with them in it from 78 or 79 when made.

look on the outside of the axle pumkin and you will find the same lines that line up .

Agreed, if it were a crack you'd see it in the machined bore for the race.
