umm, I don't like it...looks too cobbled together. Not only that, but all that work and hes only running those weak diffs? Danas are the only way to go with big trucks with big engines and big tires (he needs those too).

I agree.

The only thing cool about any of the pictures on that auction is the Hyundai or whatever that is parked underneath of it.

14 bolt weak? I agree the 10 bolt has to go if you are planning on running the tires that should go with that lift, but 14 bolts are very popular strong axles. They are comparable to a dana 70 in size and strength.

There are 2 different 14 bolts that I know of (maybe more). If he has a semifloater then not strong enough. If he has a full floater then yes they're strong enough but I agree for sure that the 10 bolt has to go.

Did ya'll see the 5.13 gears he's running in that thing!! GEEZE talk about crawling.

I thought that the semi float 14 bolt was only in 88 up light 3/4 ton(6lug), and all 14 Bolts in 73-87 were Fullfloat

From what I've seen only 1/2 4x4 and blazer and suburbans that were all 4x4 were 6 lug. Our 3/4 ton and 1 ton trucks were all 8 lug.

3/4 and 1 tons are usually 8 lug, but I think there were 2 versions of the 3/4 ton in the 88 up bodystyle. I have seen some with 8 lugs, but the snowplow trucks used where my dad works are all early 90's 2500 with 6 lugs. I hear that these aren't very desireable.
