28 or 31 spline
does anyone with a 77 ranch 400 engine know what their spline count is.
I changed axle bearings about 4 yrs ago and didn't right down what I have.
I am getting ready to purchase a complete 3rd member to get rid of the open carrier and to replace the stock 3.00 gears with 3.50's
if someone can save me the hassel of pulling an axle that would be great.

update
I was just reading a topic on 9" rear in 73-79 trucks and found a good tip. the bolt size on the axle bracket to brake assembly plate indicates what axle spline. the 28 being 3/8-24 (9/16" bolt head) and the 31 spline is 7/16"-28 (11/16" bolt head)
I think I would have trusted this info beforehand but I did pull the axle and it is 28
now its time to order my traction lock! the race track opens March 7th
