If you have 4.10 now, you will have to reuse your carrier to do the swap. You might be able to just swap the side gears if you have coarse side gears, and want to swap to fine-spline side gears.
Follow me? If you have a coarse spline, 4 series, but wish to swap to a '72 up diff, you would have to use your carrier, the other carriers side gears, and your old diffs gears, to whack into the newer diff.
Otherwise, if you're playing with all 3 series stuff, it's much simpler. Cheers.

thats all hanging on if they are both fine spline, right?? and just a random thought, could i just use the housing, and take the axle shafts and all and swap them, or would that make something mess up?
sorry for the dumb questions. i dont really like to get into axles normally, but for 100 bucks, i might as well try
