Originally posted by WaffleI 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.Originally posted by blazerbrad View PostI 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?
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.

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.
