WTB 3.73 rear end for 71-72
Looking for a nice 3.73 coil spring rear end for a 71-72 half ton. Doesn't need to be a posi, but does need to be fairly clean, don't want to have to replace the brackets on it. Also only looking for local, with in the KC area.

Re: WTB 3.73 rear end for 71-72
Anybody reasonably close have anything? I would probably take any gear at this point. Also brakes are not important.

Hey man are you looking for the whole 3rd member? drum to drum?
I think I have a differential for a 3:73 but just the unit and spiders, no ring or pinion etc. Did you check with Joe R. up in Independence? He has a lot of things. Tim |

Re: WTB 3.73 rear end for 71-72
I need a whole rear end, drum to drum, but since I'm putting discs on it I don't really need the drums. Lol! I've known joe forever, he doesn't have anything. We were talking the other day how it used to be you couldn't give away a 3:73 rear end since everybody wanted 3:07s, now they aren't anywhere to be found. BTW, the blazer I need it for used to be Joe's, I'm making it a 2wd.

Re: WTB 3.73 rear end for 71-72
ls1, I've got a rear end you might be interested in.. It's my spare but, I might part with it for the right price. 69-70 coil sprung rear with a posi carrier in it. Has brand new Richmond 3:73 gears in it that were installed 3,000 miles ago. But, still has the 6 lug axle shafts. Everything but the brakes were gone through 3,000 miles ago when the ring and pinion were put in..

Re: WTB 3.73 rear end for 71-72
So I took my 3:07 out of my short bed frame and had it rebuilt with a 3:73 posi, so I'm good to go on my current project. Still need another one to put back under the SB frame. Just needs to be 71-2 and 3:73 gear, non posi is fine.

Does the guy in Lenexa have one? Also, look on C-list in Ark City, KS. A guy is selling a TON of stuff. Does Teeitup have one?
