3/4 and 1 ton rear end

[Cincinnati Guy]

Are there any physical differences between a 3/4 rear end an a 1 ton rear end?

 

[Brimmstone]

depends if it is a full float or semi float, generally though 3/4 and one-ton are the same

 

[Cincinnati Guy]

So a 3/4 and 1 ton rear end are the same?

 

[Brimmstone]

I believe so. All the bearings and what not interchange on the 10.25 so to my mind they are the same

 

[towcat]

if it's a full float rear, they are the same.

Thanks, well I have that guy who has one out of a single axle 350 it has new new brakes, hardware, parking brake cables, and he wants $100 for it, and it also has the same gear ratio I currently have, and its not a limited slip. Is it worth it or should I pass on it?

 

[Brimmstone]

brakes are worth that alone. snag it

damn!! at that price he might as well give it away! if it were me i would jump on it. absolutely. hes got more than that in parts replaced on it.

I would make sure they are both the same axle (most likely 10.25) if you are thinking of swapping parts onto your axle, which I'm thinking you are considering. They used a Dana 70 axle under some too. You can do a search for each and get an illustration that will make id easy.

Dana and Sterling parts will not interchange.

on the subject of rears, i got a 3/4 ton '92 dodge rear end (dana 60), and i have a '78 ford 3/4 ton rear (also 60). the dodge rear is 2" wider (1" each side) then the ford rear, any ideas why? i was going to use the ford backing plates as the dodge ones are rotted but they're different.... btw it's goin in the scout.

My F250 has a Dana 70 so you should make sure they are the same before getting all crazy. But 100 bucks is a steal

 

[Agnem]

By it! you can sell it to me for $200.

 

[sle2115]

I would say for that money, either way grab it. You can always get your money back out of either.

I finally went and picked this all up yesterday after work. All this only cost me $100!!!

Here are some of the new parts.

New Rotors, one of them isnt even outta box.
New Wheel Cylinders
New Brakes
New Brake Hardware
New Differential cover
New E Brake Cables

I think it is a sterling. no sure the tag numbers yet, but I will post them here to tell what I have exactly. 2 of the 4 tires are brand new it looks like and the other 2 have about 50% tread.

There is a place on both sides where it looks like it is missing something you can kinda see in this picture.

Well how well did I make out on this deal?

 

[funnyman06]

It must be a sterling because it doesnt look anything like a Dana
