I am buying an 85 GMC Suburban and am going to part it out. I am assuming it has a 10 bolt rear end with 3:08 gears, unless I get lucky and it has a 3:42 posi. Other than having to weld the saddlles for the trailing arms on the Burb rear end, is it the same length as the original one in my 72 and will it just bolt in?
