I had no idea. Am I the only one? Seems cool, but can't find a price anywhere. Any Spicer dealers on here? @Cperry @Jody Treadway

Well that is freakin cool. I bet anything they're cheaper than rockjocks. I love the fact that they're a 8 lug pattern and rear is full float too. For someone with no welder or fab skills, this is a great option.
 
On another note, Dana/Spicer is now manufacturing ring and pinions for non-Dana applications. The catalog has Ford 8.8, Sterling applications and Toyota among others.

Those are the retail prices in the form that Dana is building them, If you want to deviate from those options we can rework them and the build sheets show the cost. These are on order and are slated to be built the first week of November for delivery to us mid november. We will do a discount on pre orders and you would not be charged until the axle ships from our location.

Two Options 488, or 538 w/ elockers. Rear is full float, only available 8 lug. ABS compatible completely bolt in. This is the reason we have not developed bolt in JK axles for the last 2 years. Dana has been working on these for quite sometime. And we have provided insight along the way. These are a long time coming but I think final product and cost is very reasonable.

It's an expensive upfront cost but when you look at all the things that are already done with this axle. It only makes sense. If you're spending enough money to put 60's on a JK then these can't be that much more.

Thats what I was hoping, but building up a set of TJ D60's on ECGS's website is still over $3k less with every option. Plus that includes steering and an OX Locker$. I built the D60's that were in my TJ on the cheap, and had about $4k in them including everything. So $6-9k depending on options is pretty reasonable, but $13k is a whole nother magnitude.

Yes and possibly a factory option in the future...

Thats kinda what I'm hoping. There's a lot of chatter about the 3.0 diesel in the 2015 Wrangler. It'd be great if the 2016 redesign include a more truckish wrangler with factory D60's and Elockers. Of course it will be $60-70k so noone will buy it.


I wonder how much spicer charges for a Dana 35? Probably $3000 judging by these prices.
 
I have not seen the WMS in writing but was told it was 2 inches wider than stock. So 67-67.5. I seriously doubt this will ever be installed from the factory but as I understand it Mopar will distribute also. So I would assume you could have the dealer pop a set in for you. I cringe to think of the cost.

Dana probably sells Dana 35 complete to the factory for like $600 but they also have made 20 million of them or more. Hard to keep costs low on low production levels.

Pre order and we will give 10% off
 
I just got word from my cousin who works for Chrysler, they are going to be coming out with bolt in 60s for the tj early next year....



And this, available in a supercharged v6 or a hemi...
