Ok, i got a dana 70 that measures 65 inches wide. I didn't have time to pull the shafts b/c the junkyard owner was closing down and about to let the dogs loose. So i just pulled it and went, i pulled the shafts today and counted 23 splines!!! I thought that Dana 70's out of a f350 had 35 splines, well it measure 1.5 inch diameter...so i am really confused am i counting wrong?? I know my eyes weren't decieving me the Dia. measure 1.5 inches...but i counted 23 splines, is the dana 70 junk? Or is it still as strong as a 35 spline 1.5 inch shaft...should i run this??
