Well the story so far....
My 89 full size blazer with 6.2 diesel blew the stock 10b rear end .... for the second time!
This time i decided to change something so it wont happen again. I bought a 12b rear end complete from a junk yard and it turned out to have a gov locker which i did not want so i took it back and asked for an open 308 12b.
I got it yesterday and got it home, put all new seals in it and installed it and went to finish up by installing the drive shaft and it wont attach!!
My 89 blazer universal is bigger than the universal that was on the vehicle this rearend came off of. Is there a type of universal that will fit my driveshaft and the new smaller rearend attachment point? It seems like i need a universal with a snapring attachment on two of the ends and the free caps on the other two ends, know what i mean? Anyone ever come up against this problem. Do I have to uninstall this rearend, new seals and all, and get one with the right driveshaft attachment fit? This would be the third rearend i have tried to install to replace my stock 10b.
