It has the large hubs that go through the center of the wheel, and bolt the axle in. It's the type you can't take the drums off, without unbolting the axle. I hope that helps to get the correct answer. It's 8600gvrw. I just don't know alot about 3/4 tons, being that this is only the second one I've ever owned.
Then yes it is a 10.5" full floater. Again that info was not shared previously and I only saw the photo above.
That has already been established but sixspeedss doesn't want to believe it
My facts are straight and accurate. If you have a 9.5 ring gear in your 2500, it must have been changed out or not a real 8600gvwr and does not mean that is what everyone else has.
I've swapped several of these rears, 10 bolts, 8.5 and 8.6 ring gear the 9.5 and 10.5 14 bolts.
Now can we stop cluttering up the OPs thread with your crap.
Listen you can get off your high horse buddy. I am not trying to sound like a know it all (like you are - or at least your ****** delivery).
I have worked on plenty of these trucks as well and almost every 8 lug, K2500 series truck I have seen has semi floaters, which indicate a 9.5" diff. My truck is an 8600 gvw truck and has a 9.5" diff and appears original. I seriously doubt someone went thru the trouble to swap it out just so you can prove me right that the OP has a 10.5" full floater. Again I have worked on these trucks since new and most 'K2500' trucks I have ever seen have semi floaters. All 3500 series trucks I have seen have full floaters.
