WTB: "narrow" 67-70 Axle - 3.07 or 3.73 near OH - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Alvin · 01-10-2008, 06:02 PM

Looking for a "narrow" (56" backing plate to backing plate) axle for my truck. Need a 3.07 or 3.73 ratio and preferably a posi. I have a 3.07 and a 3.73 geared, open (non-posi), 5-lug axle I can trade (just one, not both!), and/or cash?

Looking to narrow my rear track width and get the tires off the inside of the bedsides.

Thanks in advance!

How soon do you need it? I was looking for the same thing, and now it looks like I am going to end up with two. I only need one. I'm not 100% sure I'm going to get the second one yet, but I know I'm getting the first. Both should be 6 lug, 56" flange to flange. Price would probably be $150 for the complete rear end. The one I know I'm getting should have the gears you want.

I should know by the end of the month, if that's not too late for you. If you find something before then go ahead and get it.

Alvin · 01-11-2008, 01:24 PM

Andy - Yeah, it was supposed to be ready then. But I think you'll agree when you see her.. it was worth the wait!

Todd - Not looking for one too soon, sometime in the next month or two would be perfect.

Huck - PM sent for more info

Thanks guys!

Alvin · 01-11-2008, 04:39 PM

Yeah, it will be in TN this year, no matter what it takes. She's not missing another board meet.
