Rerard 01-03-2002, 06:54 PM its a little better than the 10 but not as good as the 14 :flipoff2: Ten_Bucks 01-03-2002, 06:56 PM Originally posted by SanDiegoCJ Looks like a GM corporate 12 bolt. Ladies and Gentlemen, we have a winner!! yjtj 01-03-2002, 07:08 PM all yah need to know is it has c clips, shiiit High5 01-03-2002, 07:36 PM yep that is a 12bolt brutus 01-03-2002, 07:45 PM Originally posted by high5 yep that is a 12bolt :rasta: :rasta: :rasta: :rasta: 66CJdean 01-03-2002, 08:27 PM Not a total pile of crap but needs some $$$ to make it worth keeping. I know you can get 35 spline and even 40 spline spools for them. 8.875 ring gear and I know you can go up to 5.38 at least. I think they were in 1/2 tons from 64-82. Chief yelling alot 01-03-2002, 09:19 PM how about stranth like are they equivelent to a Dana 44 or whould they be like in between a 44 and a 60 thanks I'm not a GM guy so bear with me CSP 01-04-2002, 09:06 AM Other than the c-clips they are between a 44 and 60. The ring gear, pinion gear, and axleshafts are larger than a 44. Grandpa Jeep 01-04-2002, 09:53 AM Originally posted by cmegoup Other than the c-clips they are between a 44 and 60.

Make a ff out of it and they are not that bad of an axle. jp junkie 01-04-2002, 03:39 PM Other than the c-clips they are between a 44 and 60. The ring gear, pinion gear, and axleshafts are larger than a 44. I saw one break last weekend. Friken axle came out along with all the gear oil. The guy didn't have a spare so they dragged his rig back to camp using the backing plate as a wheel. :rolleyes: CSP 01-04-2002, 04:55 PM Originally posted by Grandpa Jeep 12 bolt axleshafts are larger? I thought they were either 28 or 30 spline. Yep, they're 30 spline (10 bolts are 28) and slightly larger diameter than a 44 axleshaft. Butch 01-04-2002, 08:39 PM 12 bolts are 31 spline. early 10 bolts are 28 and later 10 bolts are 30. As long as you are sensible and run 35's or less they hold up very well. I had my 12 bolt with 4.10's and a detroit for 13 years and never broke anything, but that front 44 would let go of about 4 shafts per season. Their weak point is the C clip and the bearing cap on the ring gear side. They have a forged cap to fix that and moser axles for the other. Unless you have 5K plus or run more than 36's a 12 bolt will do you just fine.:p Chief yelling alot 01-05-2002, 06:05 PM Originally posted by Butch 12 bolts are 31 spline. early 10 bolts are 28 and later 10 bolts are 30.
