Crane Axle GM Dana 60 Rear Steer Knuckle Kit
CA01024
Build a Rear Steering Axle with Crane Axle’s GM Dana 60 Rear Steer Knuckle Kit — engineered for maximum articulation, strength, and precise control in the harshest off-road environments. Designed for builders who demand reliability and serviceability, this kit allows you to build a fully functional rear-steer axle using top-grade, American-made components.
Unlike typical “Dana 60 only” solutions, this kit is engineered to fit ANY axle housing with a 3.00" up to a 4.00" bore. That makes it the perfect rear-steer foundation for a wide range of platforms, including:
- Fabricated 9" and 10" housings
- GM 14-Bolt
- Dana 60, Dana 70, and Dana 80
Whether you're building a high articulation trail rig, a competition crawler, or a rear steer buggy designed for maximum maneuverability, this knuckle kit delivers uncompromising performance and long term durability
Key Features & Benefits
-
Interlocking Keyed High Steer Arms – No Bolt Shearing
The keyed arm design transfers steering load into the knuckle body instead of relying solely on hardware. This eliminates bolt shear and ensures a stronger, longer lasting steering setup. -
Rear Steer Capable
Ideal for rear steer buggy builds, Rock Crawler applications, or any custom off-road rig requiring precise steering control. -
Uses Off-the-Shelf GM Components
Compatible with standard GM Dana 60 components, making trailside repairs simple and parts easy to source locally. -
