Are the front and rear diffs on a 88 WT sierra the same, As I'm plannig to swap the front and rear over as the rears has excessive backlash.I Think they are but I want to make sure before I swap them over.
Cheers Wooza

nope. the WT has a crap front hemisphere construction ... not as strong as the rear, but mainly....the rear axles and front CV axles are different sizes. |

Ok the diffs out It still looks Ok but the spline on the axles look a bit worn. Where's the best place to get zook diff bits(Gaskets,seals,bearing,Etc) Anyway while I have the diff out I should put a locker in it.

The finance for the house fell through. BUGGER It means I will have to wait a little longer for the locker. Checked the back lash today, the manual says .1mm - .15mm back lash, with a Dial indicator I measured .8mm - .9mm . bit excessive for my liking.
