D 35 spiders

[jimoshel]

Does any one know if the spider gears from a '86 4:11, 27 spline, non C clip interchange with '87 up? Couldn't find anything in search. I have a '87 I can tear apart and find out but checking to see if any body already knows.

The spiders were all chipped up in my '86 and I'm trying to find the easiest (Cheapest) fix.

I don't know if there are any differences between spiders with the different carriers, I doubt there is, but I know C-clip side gears and non-C-clip side gears are definitely different.

However, the c-clip Dana 35s weren't introduced until the 1990 model year.

Model 15 in AMC Eagles should have the same spiders as non-C-clip D35s (gears interchange but not the axle shafts due to bearing size differences)

[Motion Offroad]

They will interchange. There is no difference in the spiders between the c-clip and non c-clip axle. The only difference in the spiders on the D35 is from the case size. 1994+ uses the 1.560" bore case and 1993-1986 uses the 1.625" bore case. So as long as your using the spiders in the same case size they will interchange.
