who makes a good spool for a dana 80 other than the $1250 haisely one also anything need beefed up while im in the mock up stages

[hookin78]

Lincoln, century, Miller, Hobart.......... lots of companies.

No, but seriously,many guys around here just weld them up, I just done a Dana 80 a couple months ago.

i seen yukon makes a spool for $650 how about puttin bridge from the backing plate flange under the pig to the other backing plate flange

[hookin78]

That would help eleminate some flex but I don't really know if it is needed, 14 bolts benefits from this but I believe and 80 would be OK without.

as much those axles go for maybe i should brace it my hitch works from the bottom side of axle and traction bars off top side

[hookin78]

Good call.........

i run a 70 with welded gears in a super stock class never had problems in so far 12 years but gm 14 bolt have a lot mor option;s that a dana 80 and a 3rd pinion bearing where the 60/70/80 dont

[bmkelley1]

I see scs makes a spool for a dana 80

[bmkelley1]

I used to run an 80 with 4.62 gears and wire welded spiders with no problems, and it was behind a 532 motor with 900 hp. I wouldn't think u would have a problem with one unless it bounced like a yo-yo. lol
