Dana 18 or 20 case favor....

[Metcalf]

Anyone have a Dana 18 or Dana 20 case around the Durango, Co area that I can borrow to do some measuring?

I just need a bare case, don't care about intermediate shaft size.

I will make all the measurement data public domain if someone wants to help. I'm building a new plate style mount for the rear of my Willys T-case. It will integrate a brace to the bottom of the case.

I will also be measuring the front of the case so that data is available for people who might want to make there own adapters and such I have a 1/2" thick adapter between my SM420 and D18 currently.

I can't believe more data like this isn't out there.....

Thanks. Hope someone can help.

Yeah, they have been around for 70 years, you would think that someone would have posted a blueprint of one buy now.....those prints have to be there somewhere.

I have some other projects for the D18 in my head. I should probably just get a D20 case for a future upgrade....

I have a buddy in PA that has a spare, but he doesn't want to drag it out to ship it to me Yet.....
