Beautiful rig...
The front D60 came out of a '77 K30 pickup that I had bought (the entire truck). Both inner shafts were neck-down and presumably the stock versions. After breaking an inner on Carb Hill I replaced both inners with new
Spicer shafts ordered from I thing Randy's?? (been several years). Chromo inners were not readily available at the time and any that were available were very expensive. After the replacing the inners, and retaining the newer Spicer u-joints, I started breaking the stock 30-spline stubs. Broke 2 stubs and found a 3rd severely twisted when replacing them with 35-spline Yukons....no breakage on anything since these replacementsl.
