Dana Seman, Tribeca Trib’s advertising director for 25 years and a resident of Independence Plaza in Tribeca since 1974, died June 16 from cancer at age 69. She insisted on working with clients even through her hospice care until just two weeks before her death. She was a body worker who studied the way her clients moved, sat and otherwise held themselves and through her skill was able to make life changing adjustments in their lives.The Dana 60 (or Spicer Model 60) is an automotive axle manufactured by the Dana Corporation and used in OEM pickup and limited passenger car applications by Chevrolet, Dodge, Ford and Jeep. Both front and rear versions of the Dana 60 are available. It can be readily identified by its straight axle tubes, 10 bolt asymmetrical cover and "60" cast into the differential housing.Most Dana 60 axles were built as semi-floating units but full float versions were also available for heavier applications and offroad use. Axles are available in both open and limited slip and a wide variety of gear ratios. They are commonly swapped into custom offroad applications to increase tire size and enable the use of deeper compound gearing.Axles are manufactured in both kingpin and ball joint variations, "standard" and reverse cut" rotation gears, knuckle types and 35-spline axles. They are built in gray iron (early units) and ductile iron. https://dana69.live/ and Ford Dana 60s utilize locking hubs while the 2002 Dodge Rams utilized a Center Axle Disconnect (CAD) system that eventually was phased out leaving some of those older Dodge Rams with unlocked Dana 60 axles.A variant of the Dana 60 called the Dana 61 is used in select 4x4 3/4 and 1 ton pickups and vans with manual transmissions to accommodate 3.07:1 gearing that would be impossible to achieve in a standard Dana 60. They feature unique differential cases that require a different carrier and a larger pinion gear and ring gear. Many upgrades are available for the Dana 60 including stronger axle shafts, larger universal joints and traction control devices such as locking differentials. A large selection of replacement parts is available as well, including high capacity differential covers that allow more oil to be pumped to the ring and pinion area for added strength and longevity.
