Okay, here is the question, sort of...

I have an 82 Burban 6.2 diesel w/700R4 and on the way home this evening while towing a family member's car that burnt the clutch out, I hear my spider gears everytime I round a corner making some awful noises. Coasting nor under power made a difference and ONLY when cornering and the tighter the corner the worse it got. Once I got her car home and started backing up into my driveway it was binding up while going straight too...

I have a 82 LWB chevy truck that I have been working on as a side project for about a year or so... What would be the differences in the two rearends? I know the LWB came with a I-6 and an auto, I know it isn't a 700R4 trans, but that is all I know. What is the likely hood that the gear ratios will be the same or close enough?
