For poops and Snickers I checked Rock Auto for an 88 s10 T5. They have the pictured item. Here comes by first bit of ignorance. It says 4wd, I'm assuming it's "4wd compatible" since that's handled by a transfer case? (Maybe it is showing one, seriously ignorant here).

Another concern is that gear ratios very. That would make it difficult to match to the rear endif they can't provide the information specific to the purchase.

In you opinion, is this worth getting or have I got the wrong number?

I appreciate the resources you provided. That was a good read and answered a lot of questions.
