The Dana 60 is one of the most commonly used front axle assemblies when doing a one ton axle conversion in a Jeep or choosing axles for a custom offroad vehicle. The Dana 60 front and rear axle are offered in a varity of vehicle makes, models and years. The front Dana 60 is more sought after than the rear Dana 60. Ford, Chevy and the Dodge Ram have all used the Dana 60. Another term to understand is \"full width axle conversion\". Often times when you hear someone say they are going full width one ton in their Jeep, Toyota or tube buggy they are referring to using a Dana 60 front axle and not cutting it down. Full width basically means you find a donor truck like a 1979 Ford F250 or F350 and use the axle assembly at the same width it was removed from the truck.

I have personally had something like this happen. During my college years I had a full width axle Jeep YJ for an everyday driver. I backed into a big rock one weekend and bent the factory diff cover into the ring gear. You can imagine what happened, the ring gear rubbed a hole through the diff cover. As luck would have it I found out about the failure an hour into a 3 hour drive back to college. If there had been heavy duty diff covers available back then the problem would have never occurred. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eI started another company (Blue Torch Fabworks) in 2001 and one of the first products I designed and offered was fabricated heavy duty diff covers.

I have been building them for close to 20 years. I stand behind the diff covers we manufacture here at Motobilt. Our warranty on them is simple... if you break it we will replace it.

Dan DuBose the owner previously owned Blue Torch Fabworks before selling that company in 2009. In the late 90’s and early 2000’s Dan become know for building wildly modified Jeep YJ’s. When Motobilt began it was only natural to begin with a heavily modified Jeep YJ build. It was like second nature. The 4 link system and many other products designed on this build were from many years experience fabricating custom YJ’s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Green YJ features a Chevy Dana 60 front axle and a Corporate 14 Bolt full float rear axle. The Jeep was delivered to the shop with the axles bolted under the Jeep with an old school spring over suspension. That is when things rapidly changed for this Jeep. The front and rear 4 link system was designed to make future installs on the Jeep YJ and Jeep TJ platforms much easier and faster. In years past the parts were priced together from generic DIY builder parts. As a business owner who does 4 link suspension conversions often having a faster way to perform the fabrication work would be much more profitable. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe build received a back half frame kit to allow the rear suspension to sit lower.

I have built many Jeep TJ projects over the years. The business model has changed at Motobilt. We want to be involved with project builds where the customer turns over some of the creativity to allow our experienced team to design and fabricate new product that our customers will fond on the website. If we have a customer contact us and state they want to build a Jeep just like something we have done in the past we are not interested. For one we learn from each build and know things we would do differently and often times reflect back on a build with new ideas for the next build. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe customer brought the Jeep TJ to Motobilt with some work already underway. The Motobilt team was tasked with fabricating custom front a rear suspension, installing our Motobilt TJ Back Half Frame Kit and designing a new high clearance Motobilt TJ Front Half Frame Kit. There are more products we design for this build which you all can purchase here at Motobilt. In 2013 we built the Green YJ. One of the features of that build was a super low ride height made possible bu the rear inner fender modifications we designed and made. The Jeep TJ build was going to get something similar. We designed and fabricated a custom set of high clearance inner fenders. Essentially they allow more room to move the wheel opening up. The entire rear factory wheel wells were removed and replaced with the Motobilt sheet metal. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe customer purchased a number of products from our website before dropping the Jeep off. Don’t tell Charles but we didn’t use them all. We wanted this build to have some fresh ideas and improvements. We did utilize the Motobilt 4 Link Skid Plate System for the TJ. It was an offshoot from the YJ version designed in 2013 on the Green YJ Build. The Green YJ and Charles’s TAN TJ Build have roughly the exact same wheelbase at 114”. The front suspension features 14” travel coils over shocks and the rear has 16” coil over shocks. The rear coil over mounts use an updated version of our fender top coil over mounts. And the lowers are something custom. The front coil over towers were built custom for this build and we are discussing offering the present tubes to work with or without our new TJ front half frame kit.
