Spinneyhill Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 You can measure the diameters and count the splines of the connections. Measure the diameter of the rear? flange where it bolts on and bolt size. Measure the length it has to be in the truck? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpage Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 There are no splines as they use Detroit ball and trunnion joints. Measure the diameter and length of the tube, flange face diameter and overall length. It might be the same as the cars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dodgedave68 Posted July 12, 2018 Author Share Posted July 12, 2018 I dont have a rear axle yet - I am mainly concerned about correct length, 35/36 axles differ from 37/38 and mine is a 36 rear axle - a guy has a few but doesnt know which is the 36 any longer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
