Dana 60 Installation Kit w/Bearings (New S-60)

The Dana 60 Installation Kit w/Bearings (New S-60) from STRANGE is a comprehensive bearing and seal assembly solution engineered for professional differential rebuild and installation on Dana 60 rear axles. This kit exists to eliminate the complexity and potential for error when reassembling critical drivetrain components, serving both experienced technicians and serious off-road enthusiasts who demand reliability under extreme load conditions. Whether you're rebuilding after bearing wear, upgrading to a stronger differential, or performing routine maintenance, this installation kit provides all necessary hardware to ensure proper fitment and longevity.

This Dana 60 Installation Kit w/Bearings includes premium bearings, gaskets, hardware, seals, and precision shims—every component required for a complete differential assembly without additional sourcing. The bearing set is engineered to tight tolerances to maintain proper preload and minimize noise and play, critical factors in differential longevity and performance. Shims allow fine-tuning of gear mesh and bearing preload, ensuring optimal load distribution across both pinion and ring gears. The complete gasket and seal package prevents fluid leakage and contamination, while grade-8 and stainless hardware resists corrosion and maintains clamping force through thousands of miles of towing, acceleration, and off-road stress.

Professionals and high-performance vehicle owners benefit most from this kit, particularly those running lifted trucks, diesel engines, or frequent towing applications where bearing stress is magnified. Installation requires basic differential knowledge and proper tools; following torque specifications and shim adjustment procedures is essential to avoid premature failure or gear noise. The Dana 60 Installation Kit w/Bearings is compatible with all Dana 60 differentials, including both full-floating and semi-floating configurations found in Ford, Dodge, Chevy, and Jeep vehicles from the 1970s forward.
