SW86 Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 27 spline instead of 29 then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mvusse Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 You want to look for 97 (late 96) or newer to get the better 29 spline one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geonovast Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 27 spline is still better than a D35. Shafts are comparable, but the housing and tubes are a lot beefier... plus, if he ever wants to change gearing, he can easily upgrade to the 29 spline carrier and shafts without changing out the whole axle.
