It was a 14 bolt but it was the full floater style with the exposed bears caps. The best bolt in swap is the semi floater 14 bolt like in my truck. Would be an inch or so wider so check if your tires would rub or not. Each other axle would cause a bunch of work. The 10 bolt can be made to work just order nice axle shafts a rebuild kit and your choice of locker or possi. You can raise the spline counts when you do this. It works out to about $2000. I think the 2wd 14 bolts are the same width as yours, the 4x; versions are a tad wider I THINK.
Yes that’s what would do… no need for aftermarket axles if you aren’t using drag slicks anyways. Do you have a G-80? If so I would swap in a better locker or posi, new seals and call it good. Maybe a girdle cover to support the bearing caps, plus they look nice.
No man.....just a one wheel peeler under there. With 3:42 gears. Probably step up to at least 3:73 when I pop the rear end open.
