Re: WTB 14 Bolt Semi Float Differential

Are you still looking for this rear differential? I might have one. Have to pull the cover and check the ratio and check the brakes. It came out of an 86 GMC 2x4. Thanks, Ken

Ken,

Sorry for taking so long to get back to you, I'm in the middle of moving to GA.. I've already found one. Thank you though, Danny

Re: WTB 14 Bolt Semi Float Differential

OK, glad to hear it. Shipping would have been a monster on that anyway. BTW, did I understand your post to say you can put six lug axles in this rear end? Thanks, Ken

Re: WTB 14 Bolt Semi Float Differential

It's my understanding that there are two ways to get a 6 lug semi floater. Re drill the shafts and drums on an 8 lug to 6 for a squarebody housing which is what I intend to do. Or find a 6 lug version out of a GMT400 truck and move the spring perches and shock mounts. Since I can't weld I figured it would be easier to get a squarebody housing and take the drums and shafts out and have a machine shop re drill them for me.

Thanks,

Danny
