Thats probably whats gonna happen unless i can find a 14 bolt and fron diff with 3.73s which isnt likely.

They're really common in 3/4 tons lol. I just found like a thousand on car-part, my local 4x4 forum and craisglist have a few posted too.

No its my front diff thats bad not my rear but if i can find a 3.73 set with a 14 bolt rear to match, thats probably the only way i wouldnt rebuild my front.

Oh, I thought you meant a 3.73 for a SAS. Do you have 3.73's now?

 

[Biggershaft96]

Nope 3.42. Id eventually like 3.73. If i sas my axles have 4.10s and they have new bearings and everything so i wont mess with them.

Ordinarily I'd say it's not enough of a difference to matter, but a SF 14b in 3.73 is pretty much the standard way to find them lol. And since your front diff is French toast anyway, a swap does make sense in your case.

Right. Ive always been a big "if it aint broke dont fix it" kinda person lol. Ive found a bunch of 14 bolts with 3.73s but cant find a front diff to match lol. I checked my motor out on lunch and its either the back cylinder on the drivers side or my exhaust donut blew out again. I swear i change these things like twice a year and when they blow out it always sounds different.

Well that's good news lol. I've been putting some mild effort into finding the ball and socket style header's for Pigpen so I don't have to deal with that lol.

 

[Biggershaft96]

Its a real pita. I thought the headers would help but ive throw header gaskets on twice and donuts more times than i remember.

I lied i do have future plans. I wanna build a headache rack lol
