Re: dumb axle question

If it has a 10 bolt rear chances are its a 10 bolt front if it has a round cover its not a dana axle

Re: dumb axle question

so far i think they are good to go....the ones i pulled off had over 200000 miles on them...no unusal noises....smooth gears...but they were 3.08's and the ones i put on were suppose to be 3.73's but i think are also 3.08's...no difference in acceleration or anything...i only paid 60 bucks for the axles pictured above so i cant complain anyways..ill just put some gears in it someday
