Re: axles
Yes,on 1/2 ton 12 bolt rear and 10 bolt front until one year(forget which) they went to a 10 bolt rear.The 3/4 used 10 bolt front and 14 bolt rear,and the 1 ton used dana 60 front,dana 70 dually rear (IIRC) or 14 bolt on the srw (IIRC).A few early 73-7? had dana 44 front axles still.

Re: axles
Nothing saying that the axles you have are factory. You probably should ID the axles first before listing them.

Re: axles
Um, I don't think so unless the front had been swapped out. GM went to the 10 bolt front in '79.
87 is also ifs Last edited by kwmech; 07-06-2007 at 11:50 PM. |

Re: axles
Your 14-bolt is probably the metric version, check if its free floating or semi.
