Question:

"underpressure75" What a coincidence! I also blew up my front, and rear at the same time. It had a Dana44 up front, and a 12 bolt rear. I found a 14bolt, and I’m now looking for a Dana60. If you know anyone in the Calgary area that is selling one, please let me know. I’d like to be out there "flinging the goo" next spring without breaking everything!By the way; Nice rig!!! Jay

My truck is a 80 GMC Jimmy with a 350, 350, 205, connected to the 10 bolt up front and the 14 out back and riding on 36" swampers. 6" lift. I havent gone out much this year since I blew up my spider gears in the old 12 bolt my rear drive shaft and 10 bolt axle all at once this may long 2001 and since then I just never had the money to put her back on the road.

Dude I got mine from the junk yard for 75 cheap canadian dollors. Replacing all the bearings and seals ran pretty heavy though. Replaced the inner ones (said the outer where decent and they would cost some good coin to replace), brake shoes, ebrake cables, and repainted it and the seals and that ran me around $300cdn. so I think those wreckers are either 1. dont know what you are talking about 2. trying to bend you over 3. have a kick ass axle 4. or you dont know what you or talking about. But you sound like you do. Check out this guys site he did a 14 bolt swap on his Blazer http://coloradok5.com/axleswap.shtml If you do find one and you need to pick it up make sure you bring friends cause this bitch is HEAVY. But the install is a Dream at least it was for me. every thing pretty much just bolts right up. Also remember the other things like driveshaft being shortened, new rims, all the little stuff like you break a brakline and it has to be replaced new brake shoes, gear oil, new u-bolts. also check out the ping and pinion of the axle to see if it will need work as well. Also to see if it is an open carrier or if it has limited slip, cause if you plan on installing a detriot locker (pretty much the only locker availible for this axle) you will need an open carrier since the limited slip carrier cannot be used. ya so have fun Kurt – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text – > Hi, > I am going to be getting a 14 bolt rear end for an 88 Suburban.

"Underpressure75" For the cost of it, Kurt, I don’t mind running the govlock until I break it. My rig is a 76′ chev 12ton long box with 7-12" total lift, 35" Wildcountry RVT’s.(soon to be 39.5×16.5×15 Swamper TSL’s) My wife drives a 78′ Jimmy with no lift and 33"Hankook dynamic MT’s (soon to be 6" lift with my 35’s)I have a "done up" 406 small block in mine, and we’re currently building up a 355 for hers. (Know anyone who wants to buy a 283?) I used to wheel around the Canal Flats area, but this year we’ve hit Waiporous every long weekend. I thought everyone in here was from the states. What’s your story, man?Truck? Where do you go? Jay.

Underpressure75 – Calgary, Alberta, Canada. I found a 14 bolt in Pick-Your-Part the other day for $50! The best part, it has a locker in it. It’s just a "Govlock", but for fifty bucks Canadian, I should buy a lottery ticket too! Jay.

I bought a nice used one for $100US here in michigan. That guy had four or five of them . I put all new bearings, brakes, etc…. $800 is way high, even for Canadian….go find a nice rusty C30 chevy with no engine and offer $200. Just pick one that hasn’t had the R&P screwed with…(or left underwater as one axle in this guys yard was ("How about this one?{woosshh..drip,drip}"…uh..no… thanks..)) Delivery on that pig is gotta be high…keep shopping…..make a day trip if you have to..

Response:
Yes our Canadian dollar just might as well role over and die. I ordered $480 US worth of body parts from JC Whitney and with shipping it came to almost $1000 Canadian. As for getting the axle, I think I will look around for an old junker and buy it. Thanks, Clint

Response:
Clint, It depends. Check the 4×4 mags. You can buy a completely rebuilt one, drum to drum, with a locker in it for $1,200US. I think it’s Boyce Equipment in CA that sells them. Locally, you may have to shop really hard. Maybe someone has a rusty beater beater with bad engine and/or tranny and you might be able to get it for a lot less than $1,200. Then you’ll have lots of stuff you can sell and maybe make back most of the purchase price. Just be sure it’s a FF rear end.

Hi, I am going to be getting a 14 bolt rear end for an 88 Suburban. I see in some mags that one can be had from a wreckers for as little as $75. I live in Terrace, BC Canada and the local wreckers here want anywhere from $800 to $1200 depending on the condition. Sooo, considering that I plan to put all new bearing, seals etc in it, I am wondering if it might be cheaper to buy it somewhere else and have it delivered. Was the $75 I saw in a 4×4 mag way out of the picture? Any experiences? Thanks, Clint
