Re: What axels do I have
Post pictures of the housings and more importantly the covers and we can tell you. K5 is a half ton and very doubtful it has Danas. More than likely 10 bolts and possibly a 12 bolt in the rear not sure when they stopped using them.

Re: What axels do I have
Won't be a Dana if origional. It will be a 10 bolt front and rear 8.5 ring gear. If origional. Go to summit and just plug in your truck info.

Re: What axels do I have
Probably not, post pictures or the G codes off of the glove box label and we can help you. Without the correct info we are just guessing, you don't want to by parts off of a guess.

Re: What axels do I have
I found this thread in a search, but my question didn't get answered.
If jbristo67 didn't have the RPO list in his glove box. Which is my issue. How can the frt and rear axles be identified? and the ratio? without the RPO list

Re: What axels do I have
The axle type can be confirmed by simply posting a picture here. The cover is the best shot.
As far as ratio, the only way to be sure is to remove the cover. The gear's tooth-count will be stamped in the edge of the ring gear.

Re: What axels do I have
Just go to Jaws gear, they will sell a gear set for your truck. If it original just plug your truck info in. They will both be 8.5 ring gears, front and rear are the same.
