Have a few spare axles that I'll be getting rid of.

Still in my '98 2500 V10:
-Dana 60 front 3.54s, Dana 70U rear 3.54s

Will have 1 Dana 80 4.10 ratio rear axle available as well, either DRW or SRW. SRW has a posi for sure, haven't received the DRW yet. I will be putting one of these 2 into my V10 truck along with a 4.10 front D60.

This was the best way for me to rebuild and install a new set of axles and swap to 4.10s. Be a good option for someone wanting to get 3.54s for their Cummins....

do you still have the dana 80 drw? and is it 4.10?

Nope, the DRW version is long gone. I have a SRW Dana 80 w/ 4.10s and LS sitting in Sherman, TX but nothing here in Oklahoma.... does that help any? I would be willing to haul it back up here if we made a deal and you sent a deposit. Let me know if you're interested. I also have a DRW Dana 80 from a 2001.5 w/ disc brakes but no gears and needs a little TLC. It had 3.54s, so the open carrier I have for it wouldn't work with 4.10s. It's in Sherman as well.

na, thanks for the response though. i just picked up a 94 cummins with a blown rear diff that ruined the case too. and the srw is probably too narrow..

Good luck then. The salvage yards ask quite a bit for the DRWs, so be sure to look around awhile before pulling the trigger. Also, since many of the rear ends had alot of miles on them you may want to consider something cheap that needs a little work so you can replace bearings and whatnot.

if worse comes to worse i know of a drw from a 1st gen that has 3,55's in it.. it might be a bit on the narrow side but i figure with a flat bed who would really notice?

spacers can correct that, but the big thing with SRW vs DRW is that the brakes are not set far enough in on an SRW to run duals.
