Re: Wiw:ho52

Experts,Know-it-alls,opinion-casters,any input???If I get better soon,I`d like to swap it out.I think the general public would like the idea of a later-model axle anyway and it won`t effect what they`ll pay for the truck.
I just haven`t decided which set of K/30 axles to use on the project.One set is 4.10 and the other 4.56.The 4.56 has Locker/TruTrac.I was wanting the 4.10 ratio.Don`t really want to get into switching the posi units,either.
I`m leaning towards the 4.56s in this project(6`Fenderside),now that I decided to part my `91 Suburban and use the 4L80e/NP241.So,that`s that.
But,I still could swap the 4.10 14-bolt in to keep the HO52 and maybe sell the 4.10 Dana60fr alone.14-bolts are everywhere.Just like me,most people buy the set to get the Dana60fr.This just adds to the cost of aquiring the front axle.
I know this is pretty babbled.That`s why I`m open to other`s thoughts.I have alot on my plate (trucks and otherwise).
