Just wonderin if you guys think it would be worth it to put it in a 10 bolt rear instead of the 35 just because i have one layin around?

It only has 10 bolts, thus is it vastly inferior.

Not worth it... 10bolt is pretty much the D35 of Chevy's IMO.

Yea that is what I figured but doesnt it have a 30 spline option,

and would that make it any stronger?

sorry Im just tryin to be cheap but I shoould probably just go scrounge for an 8.8

chevy 10 bolt is fullwidth. might as well find a 14SF or 14FF, just as cheap, just as wide- a whole lot stronger

i mean if it was like an XJ or somethin, mabey since you would only have to weld on 2 spring perches. with a ZJ you have UCA's+LCA's and a t-bar bracket to do. might as well put all that work into something worthwhile

Get an 8.8 its much stronger and basicly the same size pumpkin.. YOu wont loose all the ground clearance that you will with a 14bolt.. (Wont be as strong as a 14 bolt either but then what it.. :D )

The 10 bolt out of a newer S10 should be 30 spline possibly limited slip and the right width but ...Like everyone says its no stronger than the 35..
