- Crane Axle Roller Axles are assembled with the basic components you'll need in a new axle assembly.
They are the less expensive way to purchase on the front side of a project and not have sensitive components sitting around during the fabrication process.
This video covers the build process of a Dana 80 Roller Front Axle and a Dana 80 Roller Rear Axle.

Looks like the beginning of a new plow truck for Andrew Camarata
One strong axle, front or rear!
Great condensed explanation!
this looks so simple that i want and would have to confidence to put this together by myself.... except for one part, which would be the welding part... i have no idea have to weld correctly/ i get how to but i wouldn't be able to weld and know if it was good.
Can you build one for the front of a F650? I think a chromoly shaft and truetrac unit would be great internals, but would need the outer hub setup for 10x285.75 bolt pattern with disc brakes. For residential contracting, it’d be plenty strong
Sweet!
Could the aluminium unit bearing fit dynatrac dynalock 40 spline locking hub?
How do you seal that rear inner bearing?
What kind of vehicle comes with Dana 80 from the factory ?
This is going to be my last build... That said, I noticed a guy wanting portals on axles that were designed to be the last ones you ever needed.
Seems counterintuitive to put a portal box on an able axle meant to crush rocks on a hopper/bouncer. Maybe on a highway set of gears in the 3-4's for lift too, but these axles are not what he's needing. Portals on a Dana 80 ring/pinion = transfer case delete and one more week link with a new breaking point?! 🤔🤣🤣
That a baller axle right there.. Stronger then a 14 bolt, with similar build? Whats the cost on something like this
It depends on what options you choose and if you want a ready to ride or roller axle or a housing to build your own. You can check out our site for current prices: craneaxle.com/default/products/axle-assemblies.html
@@CraneAxle my problem is, ive been through 2× 14 bolts and this latest one the brake mounting ears are slightly bent and I'm tited of brakes dragging
@@gregleblond9367 The Dana 80 is really about as strong as it gets. It will cost more than a 14 bolt though. You could also re-work your 14 bolt if the brake mounting ears are the only issue.
Is it possible to have a front end built in a custom width?
Why are you adding grease when pressing in the axles housings? Seems like that would make it a bitch to not contaminate the weld
So when are you going to start producing portal axles?
Not sure - no plans yet but that could change.
@@CraneAxle cool. I’ve been racking my brain trying to figure through how it could be done with the portal box being permanently mounted to the axle and the inner-C and rear spindle attaching to the outside of the box. Throwing the F450 Unit Bearing on that axle (different video) was the ah-ha moment I needed. I doubt I’ll ever get a chance to build it, but I know what to work towards if I do.
@@lanceroark6386 Sounds like you got it figured out brother! If you ever get 'er built we'd like to see it :-)
I'm a professional on finding weak points on any axle and when I do you have to make it stronger
Lol go smash it into rocks till it breaks. Weak link found. That's the professional way!
What type of ball joint you use?
you put these on a jeep and you are ready for armageddon!
