Those will look good on there. Did you change the rear axle yet? The Dana 70 didn't like the 39.5's

No I have not changed it yet. I guess I will see how it holds up. Try to take it easy on it.

Did it ever brake with the 39?

I wonder what the cost of upgrading the D70 carrier and buying new shafts is compared to slapping in a 14-bolt with 4.88 gears?

I seem to recall it breaking a shaft before. What you have is the older coarse 23 spline d70. Think these have 1.5" shafts but they neck down pretty far. Something like 1.2". The trick is knowing whether you have a .5" offset carrier or not as I think this makes a big difference when trying to put the bigger 35spline stuff in, source parts, and have it all line up correctly.

well I will have to try to figure out what carrier is in it so I know what parts to look for. I have a friend that has some dana 70 parts but who know if they will fit or now

As for the cost. Well I looked last night and the cheapest 14 bolt axle I found uses was 250 and the cheapest 488 gear for about 185 shipped. So I am going to be on the look out for both and hope that the 70 holds till then.

any of you guys know if that rear is a 2 part carrier or not?

[93 Krawler]

Yes, he broke the pass rear. It broke on steel hill in Harlan. He wasn't really getting on it either. Watch out for low low. It breaks stuff.

I researched this way back and there were like 3 different versions of pinion offset. I believe it's a 2 piece carrier, which if I recall would make it easier to swap to 35 spline. Unless the spiders are welded to the carrier. It sucks that only moly shafts are 32 or 35 spline.

Looks like you need to come out and play with us soon! Next run is April 26th (Rush)
