im after some information on axle lengths and the difference between 60 series and 80 series

i know the 80 series is a wider unit but a lot of that is in the hub so im wondering if my 30spline 60 series longfields and cv's will fit into the 80 series housing?

also will the 80 series hi pin diff take the abuse from a 350 chev in a vehicle that weighs 2T?

cheers in advance :D

Mad, do you have axle specs/lengths for the rear? to compare a 60 and 80 series?

cheers for the info. sold 60's longs and bought 80 series longs and so far the hi pin diff has taken the abuse fine :armsup: pity i blew the rear carrier pin to bits half way thru a winch challenge :oops: too much foot while bouncing, had a lockright in the rear which is the cause of breakage due to too much lash and getting a big foot full. has now been replaced with ARB to match the front :cool: ... still learning to drive the new setup :roll:

You need to drop the "?v=0" off the end of the file name.
