Dana/Salisbury rear cover plate the same?

#1 Post by Logos24492 » Fri Apr 08, 2016 5:10 pm

So the drain plug is totally hooched on my rear cover... I know that Salisbury axles "are" Dana 60's, but how far does that go? Can I take the rear cover plate from a Dana 60 and replace mine? Also... I need to change all my fluids lol I spent over an hour stuck chest deep in a river...

Yea so my main question before I go drop money on a Dana 60 cover plate is will it fit and are there any differences from year to year etc

Thanks guys

Yes, they are the same. You may or may not need to open the holes a bit as the Dana 60s use 3/8" bolts and the Salisbury uses 10mm. Usually they are okay.
