Hey y'all,
Well it's a 14-bolt FF, but it's actually from a late 70's 3/4 ton truck so the spring pad spacing should be right for my Blazer(36" I believe). That's a good deal on the rear, but I'm afraid I am going to get shafted on the Dana 60 front. They are high priced items now. That's why I have been considering going with a 8 lug Dana 44 for the time being. I am going to step up to 38" tires next year so I just want to be ready for that. Thanks for the info guys. I'll let you know what happens.
Sincerely,
Chris
