1/2 ton status
So I've asked a similar question before, but know it seems it's not a want, but a need. I think my rear end is going out.
I currently run stock 3.08's with 33's. I don't wheel other than to go hunting but I want to occasionally run it in the mud. So I need to either fix the 10 bolts or replace them with something else. It seems the cost of a 10 bolt carrier and gears is really expensive. So it seems silly to me to fix the 10 bolts when a 14 bolt and a 44 from the junkyard is only $500, with 4.10's. But, I don't need the heavier axles.
I can pick up some H2 wheels for $200 and I already need new tires, so the cost of going 14 bolt/44 would only be $700 except for ujoint and of course, tires. The ebrake will bolt right up I think to the 3/4 ton drums, so I can't think of any cheaper way to fix my problem.
How much would a set (front and rear) of 10 bolt carriers with ring and pinion cost me? How hard is it to do?
