where to buy 14bff rebuild kit
 
I just bought a 14 bolt ff and dana 44 from a 3/4 ton chevy. Dont know what year as they are out of the truck already. My question is where is a good place to buy rebuild kits for these axles, also will have to relocate spring perches and shock mounts so where is a good place to find those also? These are going into my 67 GMC 3/4 ton project. Thanks for any help!

Been buying parts from them for 25 years with no problems and excellent prices.

It "depends" upon what you are calling "rebuild" kit? What parts are you looking to service? If you are just talking about brakes/wheel bearings/etc. you can probably get that kind of thing locally just as easily as anything else...
If you are talking about "internally", you may need to step back and evaluate things a bit more first. You cannot simply disassemble the differential (ring/pinion) and replace the bearings. It is just not that easy.....Besides, if the bearings are that worn, the gears are in bad shape too....and that is a fairly major thing.

As I said these are from a salvage yard , I know very little about there condition and want to rebuild them completely. But when I said rebuilt kit I meant internally as these are the only "kits" I know of. I am not new, have been building cars for 15 years, so I know what has to get done when swap out gears. I was looking for advice on where to buy an master rebuild kit, gears are fine wont be replacing those.

I found a 14 bolt swap kit at ruff stuff, they have the perches, shock mounts that I will need.
