My 70 GMC Longhorn with small block and 4 speed had a Dana 60 in it. There is a 69 Chevy Longhorn for sale here locally with a big block and 4 speed and it has 3.54 geared Dana 60 in it. Obviously both C20's. The HO52 is 5200# GVWR and the Dana 60 is 5500# GVWR and the HO71 is 7200# GVWR. So GVWR of the truck would dictate which axle was installed as well.
