Title: Factory Dana 60 diff cover....are they really worth this much?
Post by: GrandpaKevin on September 21, 2020, 06:01:44 AM

I have a couple factory steel/painted Dana 60 covers sitting around.

Are they bringing this king of money?
Are new ones being made/sold?

No brakeline clip. There's still thousands in JY pickup trucks and I'm pretty sure they are available from Spicer.

Do any of the covers have production date codes stamped on them?

I noticed the new replacements don't have the raised rib on the gasket surface area. So there is a visual difference if a person is looking for a correct cover. Is it worth that kind on money? I have no idea. I have bought from that seller and he always has all kinds of original and restored Mopar parts so I have to think he has a good idea of what it will bring.

Seem the cheapo chrome cover has the ribs.

You could blast the chrome plating and paint the cover I guess.
