Re: Need some help
Axle diameter on my two rears (12 bolt 1970,and 72) is 3.0". Should be the same diameter for all 67-72 12 bolt rears.

Re: Need some help
you need to slow down a bit. you may get lucky and you may pay shipping to return the axles . pull your axles and measure them. make sure you do in fact have a 30 spline rear end and that its the diff that came from factory. the truck is almost 45 years old and its not uncommon for a PO to have changed it with a reman or even a new after-market rear that may be wider than the 68.
there's never seems to be enough time to do it right the first time, but there's alway time to do it over. |
