Ok. So I've been in the military for 29 years. I'm a DIY guy and this is hands down, the best TH-cam video out there. No rambling, clear, concise, to the point, super knowledgeable, right use of terms, unbelievable use of training aids......Nothing more to add.
I have never listened to or watched a more concise...accurate...and complete explanation and video regarding actions needed for a mechanical fix. You walked through each and every necessary move while narrating it perfectly. . I have subscribed and will use your site in the future whenever I need a "fix". Thank you so much.
One of the best and most detailed tear down videos I've ever seen. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
I've done this job several times, but that was a very good breakdown of the job.
Best video ever for fixing stuff! Stright and to the point!
Great video!! Well done.
These seals are the reason that I bought an XL with a manual transfer case shift and manual hubs.
Great videos. Exactly what I needed to do for my 04 f 350. Good parts break down .thanks
Badass video! Very informative and detailed 👍🏻 Best tear down video I've ever seen.
Teacher. You are a Real Teacher bro.
Great video and explanation of how it all comes together
Awesome video. Showed me exactly what I needed to know. Thank you brother
Excellent video, with good detail ! Thanks
Great Job and precise explanation.
Excellent video! Thank you so much.
Thanks for this very clear video!
I don't usually comment on these videos, but I must say This was super good. Thank you for posting this. I've got a bad upper ball joint and was scratching my head how the axel comes out. Again thank You!! Edit... My darn vaccum and axel did not come out as easy as yours!! cut my behind, but at least I felt confident how it is supposed to come out.
Very detailed and informative video.
Thank you for such a great video! very descriptive and thank you for identifying the seals at the end two thumbs up!
Agree w Jason. This guy needs to do ALL how to videos..
Very good video dude straight to the point i like it awesome job keep em up im subscribing for sure
Great job!
Great video, thanks
Thanks for the info. Great video
Great video. Awesome information.
Good Stuff, Great Tips👍🏿😀
Awesome video.
Nice work buddy
Great video helped a lot. Lol i just need a bigger pry bar and ill be good.
very informative video. Even a novice could do it per your video!! Well done! :) P.S. I miss and prefer spindle nuts and normal lock outs with inner and outer bearings.
Great video thanks
There is a wide yoke and narrow yoke for the ujoints 4 1/2" or 5" make sure you order the proper ujoint!!! And there is a specific tool to install the knuckle seal. You don't want to buy them twice.
Regarding the U-joint. While the axle is out try greasing the joint. If grease doesn't come out of all 4 cups replace it. I would probably replace it with a new one anyway as they are not very costly for a quality part.
Great tutorial. To be "clear": Super 60 can be referring to any Ford Dana 60 post 2005 in all of these axles, depending on who is talking. BUT the "Wide Track" or "Fat Boy" is the real Super 60. Only came in a few F350 duallies for limited years (2008 to 2010) and all F450 and F550 from 2005 on. To make things worse the naming conventions get all mixed up when sourcing bearings, seals and U joints. Just did all of this. Great fun, multiple part returns, none of the fitment charts work etc. different spline count, stouter parts, same drag links, shocks are different, different U joints, same track bar. It's a mess. You want the real Super 60 if you are doing any conversion. I can turn a 84" cab to axle F450 tighter than a short bed f350 now.
Is there any way to identify a “super” 60 ?
I'm actually interested in doing a 2x4 to 4x4 conversion on an f450 so this was a helpful post thanks
@@moejr14 Yes check the stamp plate for model and look it up. Can't mistake them. The tubes are much thicker, brakes and u joints are huge. Best bet is see what truck it came with. Check the axle code on the door jam. F450, F550 2005 on and some select F350 dually (rare trucks).
No, Ford 'Super Duty' 60 does not mean 'Super 60' they are very different, ask the manufacturer: Dana, they don't think they are the same.
f350-f450 dual rear wheels only had them in 4.33 and higher. post 2005
f550 and higher had them
united electric info is mostly wrong. (aka pirate)
@@EricIvresen I didn't say that..read it again.
Are all hubs/unit bearings the same from 2005-2016? I understand that the abs sensors are the only difference. Can you confirmV
Do you have parts numbers for all the seals and o rings
Good video! Very informative, I determined my inner axle seal is leaking as I can see oil leaking out of the outer. How long can a guy run a truck like that?
Also, subscribed!
Thank you ineed explain about ram 1500
great video, how about an intaling video
Good video! Can you help me. With inspection front and rear axles? I have sounds. Thanks.
In what state you?
This is a great video. My diff fluid is leaking out my passenger side of my front axle. How do you set the inner tube seal? Thank you.
Axel shaft seal installer
Before the axle is pulled out do I need to empty the center gear box first? I need to help my son fix his F350. the passenger shaft is now missing the dust shield. I can turn the shaft by hand and shake up and down,.
I have a 2020 450 with a bent driver side axle tube. Will a 2012 450 axle assembly fit even if I have to swap gears over?
Does that year not have the outer shaft thrust washer behind the hub assembly? Looked like it was missing in the video.
That is correct. This axle Design starting in 2005 does not use thrust washers.
2018 f250 platinum removed and does not have a dust seal
On the axel shaft
The hose going into the knuckle was the cause of my vacuum leak.
Hi anyone knows if rockauto sold a all seals(vacuum seals!!) in and out because I replaced a all bail joints and I need replaced that seals! And a bolt on top of the hub! for connecting a vacuum hose! VENTURES sold that seals? Thanks fellas great vedeo 👏👌👍
So ford uses the same axle from 05 on up? Basically I'm looking for a salvage front axle for my 2015 f350 and cant seem to figure out which years will fit
Any 05-16 will. The brakes changed in 2012 though. So size and rotors are different so be advised there. Other than that, the rest is identical
What truck should I be looking for that would have 5.38 gears from the factory? I need single wheel non dually. I thought super 60s were 10 lug, but this one seems to be 8x170 single wheel...What gives?
10 lug are f450 and 550. 250 and 350 are 8 lug.
I have play in the knuckles between the dust seal on the axle housing and vacuum seal. What do you suspect is at fault?
U-Joint ?
U-Joint ?
Do you have a brand of O Ring snap pliars that you recomend for this? None of mine seem to be long enough to reach back in there and the ones that are dont seem to be strong enough to complete the task.
We have a pair of Mac Tools that work. They are older and I do not know if they carry them anymore. Part Number TP26
Hello, I have an 06 f250 with this axle. I found the schematics online and it shows there is a thrust washer, but I did not notice it in the video. Does this model have one or not? thank you
An 06 will not have a thrust washer. The front axle design changed in 05 to not use thrust washers.
@@VenturesTruckParts thanks a lot! your videos helped me a ton! thanks guys!
It's there supposed to be an outer axle shaft seal behind that plastic dust shield?
Give us a call and we will be happy to talk you through it. 801-621-0091 ventures truck parts
Haha oh there’s supposed to be a snap ring? I just have rust lol
Nice video but getting that rotor and hub off isn’t easy your gonna need a BFG
Does the 2006 not have needle bearings on inboard side of hub to support the axle?
They updated the design and it is now a sealed bearing.
@@VenturesTruckParts so the sealed bearing can still be changed like the needle bearing style?
@@matthewrodrigues2637 Yes that is correct. The sealed ball bearing can be replaced.
where did you get those pliers the long reach one?
Amazon
Please tell me what brand or who makes those snap ring pliers.
Nevermind, i saw it in the comments. Thank you.
How do you know if you have a Super 60 or just a Dana 60 from a Superduty Diesel ?
2005 and newer trucks refer to the front axle as a Super 60. Previous years are referred to as a Dana 60
Similar for a 'Super 60' axle, as opposed to a 'super duty' axle
what number is on snap ring plyers, i bought 4 different pair none work big set bent.
They are an Armstrong brand. I do not have a part number. It has been worn off from use...
@@VenturesTruckParts ok any idea who sells them, are they, sears, otc, or something
@@dennishebert5259 they have some on amazon. I just dont know the model. Just search Armstrong Snap Ring Pliers.
@@VenturesTruckParts ok thanks
Hi Dennis i have a pair of snap on that i use it does the job but its hell getting the snap ring off and on and i was looking for some longer reach pliers any luck finding the part number that the guy in the video is using Thanks.
Bro that snap ring is a nightmare 😭 I'm trying to remove mine now on second set of pliers
Getting it back on is even worse
@@jessealbrecht5970 your crazy lmao get the homedepot husky pliers they worked great for me
So much damned confusion on O-rings and nomenclature. I have a 2006 F450 with the REAL Super 60 "Wide Track" and manual locking hubs. It's been three straight days chasing part numbers for seals and O-rings. From what I can tell the spline shaft between the Super 60 and the "WIDE TRACK SUPER 60" is the same but the spline count is different. So, all the seals should be the same? I got the yellow O-rings (yours are orange, ugh) for the manual hubs and now I see there is a mystery black one too for Vacuum? Is that black O ring on the manual locking ones? Wide Track? Ugh.
Call us and we will be happy to help. 801-621-0091. The black one is for the wheel bearing unit hub. Not the 4x4 locking hub.
