that is an awesome price on the eaton rear. i paid 100 plus shipping just for a 4.10 (its not a 4.11 like in the 10bolt) third member for my 72 burb. i would buy that axle setup in a heart beat if you were on this side of the country. a 4.10 and an overdrive trans is a good combination in any 3/4 or 1 ton truck......like mine that has a 4.57 and no overdrive (planning to add the factory OD tail unit to my 3 on the tree saginaw). the gear swap alone will drop the rpms by 300+ at 60mph and keep me under 3 grand on the tach for much better fuel mileage.
