    Rear axle length?

    For my 2004, 28 spline rear axles, what is the length? I searched through a few dozen threads for an hour, but I did not find the spec.

    34.300 in?

    34.375 in?

    Shame on me, I made an error. It was Chris at ADTR who sold me the Detroit Tru Track Limited Slip Differential to use 28 spline.

    Nonetheless, advice heard.

    Those are the ones! Just exchange your Trutrac for a 31 Spline version, and you will be good to go!

    Chris at ADTR was nice enough to take back the unused 28 spline Detroit differential and exchange for a 31 spline.

    For a permanent fix to the c-clip axle problem consider the Dutchman Axles conversion to a proper pressed-on tapered roller bearing. PM sent.
