Do people sas with a Dana 50?

I know nothing about axles

 

Dana is the manufacturer of the Tacoma frames. Need I say more?

I'm messing around, but are you asking for the tacoma? If so then prolly not with a Dana 50. If for Tacoma then you prolly want Pre 85 pickup axles, or convert your front and rear to 60 series or 80 series Cruiser axles.

 

I think the 50 has a smaller spline count but other then that is similar to a 60

 

Tons and 40s>>>
Better yet get 2.5ton axles

 

I think the Dana 50s and 60s and even 44s are all gonna be too wide on the taco right? We measured them all when we did a SAS on a 86 pick up. We just went with a Pre 86 solid axle from a pickup, the others would required even more modding

 

That’s kinda what I’ve learned, was more curious than anything

ooh

 

I mean, if you aren’t going for a streetable truck it probably doesn’t matter

 

Let's think of some real world answers for doing that sas for JKO1998, that's LALA land stuff man

 

50 and 60 are all full size tuck axles so i dont know if you would find match the same rear width as a taco. You can probably find a 44 in the same track width or similar to a taco.

 

All the cool southern rock bouncers uses 2.5 tons and 44s

 

I guess it'd be important to know your goal to give you a better answer for your question. I thought you were asking seriously, but pretend answers to pretend scenarios is fun too

 

Some day, not on either truck I have now though

 

Okay, so the pretend answers work. Carry on

 

Portals!

 

@eon_blue you know you need something car seat friendly

 

The rattle would but not the vibes

 

I want this BAD. Absolutely how I would build a commuter. The important things covered and done, and the non important things don't have money wasted on them. Dude this really is perfect commuter build

 

Appears to be very fairly priced as well. You seem to be an honest man Wulf

 

Where Tyler go? He get banned?

 

I think he sleeps in until noon or so

Edit: I think that's what he said a few days ago or something when someone axxed him
