DRW means its a dualie which has a different hubs and SRW means it is a regular non-dualie P/U.

They "should" be. Only real difference is the hub. GM is not going to stock a lot of different parts building them.

The stub shafts are the same.You will need the srw hub and rotor.They run about 400$ a set.

Maybe at a dealer but you can surely do a lot better than that new or used if you look around.

320.00$ sounds better than 400.00$. i'll have to check into that. My d-60 came out of a 1978 4x4 dualie,camper special.it had a 350cid motor,th400hd trans.203 trans case. HERE'S A ?,SOMEONE PUT LOCKINFG HUBS ON THE 60 BECAUSE OF THE FULL TIME TRANS CASE.THEY ARE B&M hub locks,will these be able to convert over to the new hubs?

i'm pretty sure they will fit either hub but i would get another opinion. yeah the srw hubs are going for $320 which is less then $400 but thats still alot for me. i'm cheap!!

I am getting a dana 60 and need the dually hubs. I would be willing to swap for singles for shipping. Let me know HndrsonJ@aol.com in GA.

The lock out hubs for a D60 chev are 30 spline, unless the stubs have been swapped for 35 spline. Check the spline count when you find your hubs.
