try pick-n-pull in stockton, they usually have a few of our trucks. the one in modesto doesn't seem to get many and the one in merced sometimes has one or two.
Bill at vintage chevy truck in fremont probably has a few but his prices are a little steep sometimes.

I'll give gabe first dibs since its his thread. But if he doesnt bite I might be interested.

stelth2002 · 07-11-2003, 04:21 PM

Well its a coil spring rear 6 lug. Worked perfect. Im in need of a 3.07 and hope that its in the same conditino. I am needing it hopefully before the end of the month cause i leave for college in august. nt_expert@hotmail.com Thanks

jays68yak · 07-11-2003, 04:27 PM

well like i said if gabe doesnt take it, ill see what i can do. Even since I droped in the 700r4 its kinda of a pig and i think 373 would help.

Mine is a 12 bolt non posi with what i think are 3.08s, coil springs

stelth2002 · 07-11-2003, 05:53 PM

I have a 12 bolt open complete and 12 bolt with a new eaton rebuilt eaton posi in it. I would trade one for the other. they are both coil 6 lug, 3.73 and in good shape. Im after a 3.07 ratio sooo...

jays68yak · 07-11-2003, 06:09 PM

got any pics?

stelth2002 · 07-11-2003, 10:01 PM

I have no pics, but there isnt much to show, the 3.73 posi has been built and painted completely(new brakes and wheel clyniders)Its in my truck now and works great, i want freeway gears. The open rear is in my parts truck and it drove up until a month ago.

gabet40 · 07-12-2003, 01:15 AM

its all yours jays68. my 3.08s pretty toasted. i think it was the second driveshaft breaking that did it in. i dont think i could make a trip to jackpot anyway soon.
i will be trying some of jerrys suggestions though, thanx a lot guys

jays68yak · 07-12-2003, 03:25 AM

hey would you be willing to pay for some of the gas if I went and got them both? your only about 2 hours from me. Let me know.

stelth2002.... you only need one 3.08 rear end right?

stelth2002 · 07-12-2003, 12:18 PM

jay, i only need one 3.08, my point is i have a open diff and posi one. I would trade a posi for a posi if someone had one.
