MT WTB: Limited slip carrier for Dana 44 front axle - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**DeadheadNM** · 12-31-2013, 07:20 PM

Swapping gears in my 1972 K5 this spring and looking for a posi carrier for use with 3.73 gears in the front Dana 44 axle. Thirty spline I believe. Thanks! Pete

any particular diff youre looking for? trac lock, powrlok, mild, or a more agressive diff?

I don't need a locker or anything aggressive - a power lok I imagine would do fine. The Blazer is basically stock. Since I'm switching to 3.73's and removing the carrier I thought I'd try a limited slip up front. Trying to save a few bucks by locating a reliable used carrier. Thanks! Pete

all my powrloks are 4 series. i do have a genuine spicer 3 series trac lok for 200 plus ship. much better quality than aftermarket items.
pretty mild overall diff. let me know.

IIRC series 3 is correct for 3.73 and down for a Dana 44. If it's in good shape post pics when you can - def interested. Thanks again, Pete

I have one as well. It is the factory Spicer unit. Currently has 3.73 gears but they are rear gears so they wouldn't do you any good. Posi is super nice though

Looks good. What do you need to get for it? Thanks for posting. Pete

**1774btcrew** · 01-09-2014, 12:44 AM

I want $175 for this. It has right at 75,000 miles and is in great condition. I would pull the ring gear off it to save you on shipping.
