Way too round to be a D44. I agree with it being a 10bolt.

Says the guy that ask the question 10 bolt! The tabs that stick out on the bottom of the diff are the dead give away

The 10 bolt was GM's way of making a knockoff of the D44.

Looks like a 10 bolt to me. Seems like that was mentioned in the other thread? Kind of a rule of thumb about GM trucks is anything past about '81 had a 10 bolt in the front from the factory. From '79-'81 you could have either a D44 or a 10 bolt (likely a 10 bolt, though) and earlier than about '78 you had a D44. (of course this is from the factory and people do tend to swap things out on GM solid axle trucks quite a bit)

That took way to long to be convinced it is a 10 bolt, you should listen to these guys. They told you the same thing in your other thread.

10 bolt for sure... as a quick google search of your year make and model would have produced.

Ya'll are smokin something. That's the rare six lug Dana 60 (only used on the 86 half ton Burbs, by the way).












Has to be, because any fool can get the steering arm off a 10 bolt or a 44.

supergper,
that drawing looks like the truck and car rear cover. Chev trucks in the 80's have 10 bolt front and rear in the 1/2 ton. This is just from memory from an "old forgetful brain". 10 bolt fronts do have the big spindles though which means larger inside wheel brg. than say a ford 1/2 ton and a lot of full size jeeps.

Wouldn't they be 10 bolt front, 12 bolt rear? I know my Blazer is a 44 front, 12 bolt rear. But it is a little older.

Probably shouldn't confuse him to much more than he his
