i thought someone on here had a 60 in a b2, and it was coil sprung.

should i just get some c wedges and weld em on to the 60 and use the 44 arms? or is there another way?

Fearme had a 60 in the nose, but it was a BII body on an EB frame. He's the only one that I recall. He used is 44 arms and welded some wedges on the 60. I don't think it's really that big of a deal. You should be able to grind the wedges till they fit. I know there was some talk about it a few years ago on pirate.

However, depending on the what model 60 you have, there might not be enough room for the wedges. A friend of mine got screwed on that one.

What size tire are you going to run? I haven't heard a peep out of my 44 with 36's.

i have 35s for now, and that will get me by with the 44 and 9. But if i see a good deal on something I try and get it. Like these 60s. Oh well, cant when them all.

Should have the b2 up and wheeling by july

A bit late, but here's a current thread on pirate. DR shows the difference in offsets I was talking about. Looks like yours would have been the good year.

Rerriverranger on the RRORC board has 60 under his 90 Ranger, I've witnessed him beat the crap out of his truck and not even make the axle growl.

You could run a Dana 60 from a 78 or 79 super duty the difference in frame width is less than an inch.
