I have a 28 Spline 8.8 under my truck with 5.13's. Been snappin shafts. I also have a 31 Spline expo axle. They are both drum. Is there any way to swap the 5.13 ring gear into the 31 Spline or is the carrier completely different.

 

I don't see why they would be different if they're both 31 spline.

 

im pretty sure the carriers are going to have a different spline counts??!

 

i don't think either of you grasped the question fully...

anthony, you are saying that you have a 28 spline 8.8 with 5.13's on your truck. you also have a 8.8 with other gears 31 spline, out of an expo. and you would like to know if your 5.31 gears from the 28 spline will fit on the carrier of the 31 spline? then put the whole expo rear end on your truck?

they should fit, as 8.8 is the ring gear measurements, however i am not 100% sure...

 

I understood the question, just didn't give the right answer LOL

 

see i thought you thought that both axles were 31 spline

 

yes the gears will fit.

 

I guess what I should have said was that since they're both 8.8's they should fit no problem.

 

the carriers are different you need a 31 spline carrier. but the gears will swap over

 

Did you even read the original post lol

correct


Thanks

That is inside the 31 spline axle I have lol

 

he has the carriers for both

yes he did, read below \/ \/

 

Is the expo open or L/s? If its limited slip an you want a locker in there then you need an open carrier.

But all 8.8 gears will work in all 8.8's. Same as 9 inchers

 

i assume you don't mean that 8.8 gears will work in 9"... do you?

just all 9" work with all 9"

 

man this is retarded.

Yes as i said before the gears will work.

if you dont know the answer do post some BS in here. This is supposed to be a tech site, not a i think i no what im talking about, but in reality im talking out my A$$ site.

 

Am I wrong?

I want to know if I am,

 

what's with the sand in your vagina today? this isn't the only thread i've seen you snap at people in, today...

 

Holy **** this site is such a cluster **** of people with too much time on their hands sometimes with 4th grade reading levels. Thanks to anyone who helped

 

They are both 8.8's, so you can swap the 5.13 gears.
