Drive Flange or slug install on Dana 60 Axle.

On this return to making videos, I install a Drive Flange or also known as drive slugs on the front Dana 60 axle on my XJ. At the end of the video I also have an update on the roll cage build out as well.
The drive flanges or slugs are from East Coast Gear Supply.

Thanks for the update Mark.Man FM has came a long way......😁💪👍👍

[@FMJeeping]

Thanks Dan!!!

[@TheBeardedJeeper]

Making me think I might want the slugs vs the hubs I have and I could sell the brand new warn hubs. Crazy how fast your rig has evolved

[@brianblithe2271]

just bought my warn locking hubs two weeks ago, now thinking wtf ???

[@DaddyJeepGarage]

The tube work looks good.

[@FMJeeping]

Thanks!!!

[@benjaminreinhardt259]

And here I have been drooling over the thought of selectable hubs. You basically converted it functionally over to a Dana 30.

[@FMJeeping]

When the jeep is offroad only, its one less thing to go wrong .

[@benjaminreinhardt259]

I went out to Windrock last year and found I would have liked to have 2LO for climbing the approach road to the trail head. It is a paved private road on a steep grade that goes from the campground up to the trail head. My poor XJ got hot by the time I got to the top of that road. But I understand that is an oddball scenario. One that a doubler would also solve. Do you have plans to put in a doubler? @@FMJeeping

[@FMJeeping]

Yea. I have just about everything i need for a doubler setup.

[@mikeeisenberger5179]

teraflex makes a kit for 2low. Or be cool and build a new case that offers independent output options!@@benjaminreinhardt259

[@BlackAndBlueGarage]

Welcome back brother! Cage looks awesome. If we're both running next year maybe we can meet at OG (off-road games)

[@FMJeeping]

That would be sick

[@mikeeisenberger5179]

I always thought slugs were the way to go for any rig that gets rowdy and is trailered.

[@FMJeeping]

My man!!! I agree

The f450 1550 stub shafts are different than f350 1550 stub shafts

[@FMJeeping]

Ahh. Then these are the 1550 shafts out of the 350.

[@panozracing]

F450/550 shafts are different lengths than 250/350.

[@FMJeeping]

You are correct. Later i realized that these are 1550 shafts out of a 350.

[@calebsurpass]

could you drive with this installed as a daily/highway?

[@FMJeeping]

Yes, but I wouldn't recommend it unless you have a selectable locker upfront.

[@craigmcdivitt3084]

Nice video! Like the bracelet! 🧩🧩 my son is on the spectrum

[@FMJeeping]

Thanks. Our local school system is big on raising awareness and money for the cause. The people leading the fight are really solid people. Hopefully your local school system has a good program in place as well and can get the right learning module for your son.

[@brianblithe2271]

is this a 04 and up dana super 60 axle or hub asy ? My 2003 f250 5.4 4x4 dana 60 does not have bolt/screw holes in the (round tube that extends from the knuckle that the locking hub sits in /extension locking hub tube ) and is to thin to drill holes into to attach the caps that come with these kits ?????? any info. appreciated.

[@FMJeeping]

It's an 05+

[@brianblithe2271]

@@FMJeeping thanks, for others info. on this i found out that there is a different kit for my type that i believe doesnt use a spacer/nylon and then uses a snap ring like factory.
