Will these axles work in my 65 c-10?
 
hey guys I was searching and found these axles and they convert it to 5 lug too. http://www.summitracing.com/parts/SAG-PA5855/ I want to go to carlisle next week and I need someone that ships rather quickly. Has anyone used these before?

If your differential is an original '64 12 bolt then these axles won't work without switching the spider gears to 30 spline gears. The '63 & '64 12 bolts had 17 spline axles and spider gears.

That would be correct.....unless someone has already changed them or the complete differential within the last 45 years.

Well I have a 72 rear out back I cant sell so I guess I'll pirate some stuff off it.

What about just swapping the complete '72 differential, or is the increased width not going to work for you?

I need the narrow rear and my 72 rear needs gone through and has an anemic 3.78 rear and open where I have 3.73 lsd factory.

If your '64 has the factory limited slip for the 17 spline axles, then you might have to change the whole carrier. I'm not positive but I don't think the 30 spline side gears will work in place of the 17 spline gears.

I would suggest verifying exactly what is in your '64 12 bolt to start with, and then go from there.
