If that had a 60 front it would be gone fast. Winch looks rusty but never hurts to have one.

Not a bad price, to bad it has a Dana 50.

the TTB front does has some advantages over the D60 with this type of setup.
1.an easier ride.
2.sits lower resulting in better fuel economy.
3.sits lower resulting in easier loading of the flat bed (rear 2" block instead of required 4" with the D60.oh yes 2" matters if your loading by hand often.)
4.TTB has better traction than a straight axle? - unsure of this one personally.iv only read that one.my experience shows traction and DRW are not to be used in the same sentence anyway.:D

I will disagree on the ride. I have yet to be in a TTB d50 that rides better than a D60 equipped truck. You only have 2" of travel and then you are hitting the bump stops. That is a HARD RIDE

That and the TTB always seems to wander..
