[QUOTE="SlugSlinger, post: 3746553, member: 7248"] If the motor is a 350, I wouldn’t go with a higher gear than the 3.73 and would probably do the lower 4.11s if it was mine. That Corporate 14 is bullet proof and was used in all the K20 and K30s. I bought an 1984 K30 out of Huntsville TX to rob the Dana 60 and Corporate 14 bolt axles as a donor for the K5 I built. If you are concerned about the strength of the 14 bolt, there is a 40 spline axle shaft upgrade that you can do, but thats overkill for anything under 40” tires. I ran 42” Iroks on mine with no issues. And I was running 5.38 gears and lockers. Good luck on the build. Those are rather as in very rare! Can’t wait to see the finished rig. [/QUOTE]
