Salvage-Yard Secrets Revealed!
We’ve encountered a number of Dodge Dana 60 (3/4-ton) rear axles with what looks like corrosion where the U-bolt plates sit beneath the spring perches. Is that a problem or just the way Dana made the axle? According to McGhghy, it’s corrosion all right, thanks to mud and water getting trapped between the axle and U-bolt plates. But he says it’s not serious unless the axletube rusts through and starts leaking. He says he’s never seen or heard of a Dana 60 breaking there due to corrosion weakness.
