WTT: 3 series posi for 4 series posi-12 bolt

** I purchased a 4 series and will be creating a for sale thread for my 3 series posi**

I have a 3 series factory Eaton posi that I would like to trade for a 4 series posi. Just the carrier, I don't have the complete rear.

FYI: 3 series = 2.76 to 3.42 factory gears
4 series = 3.73 and numerically higher

Casting number. Mine is 32212. Not sure what a 4 series number is but post up what you have and I can do some research.

Don't know, but I am going to try to only swap the carrier and keep my gears like what is being talked about here. So I really should have a 4 series.
