Archived Where can I get spider gears for my 3500 2wd?!?!?

[ScottWright]

I just sold my '99 2wd 3500 auto, unfortunately right before it left, the rear started locking up going around corners. No weird noises, just locking up like the posi was stuck. I was hoping for posi anyway. . I just took the cover off, and found pieces of a spider gear in the bottom of the mag-tech cover. The ring gear looks good, so I think I got lucky there. But I need a source for getting a set of spider gears. I think this is a Dana 70/80 hybrid right? Anybody have anything, or know where to get it? Anybody know what interchanges, years/trucks/etc. . .



Thanks in advance for your help guys!!!

i got mine from Randys Ring and Pinion when I blew mine up. I was told I could have had them cheaper elsewhere, but they were easy to deal with. They will ask you what center pin you have, and how many splines are on the axles just to let you in advance.

im sure you could also order them at your local dealer. they can break down each piece.

I don't have the rear end all apart yet, I only have the cover off. Can anyone tell me what spline/center pin a '99 3500 2wd auto would have? I'm surprised there are much more then one?

4 Sight - Ivan Hinkle - 518-736-2030 Tell him Gus sent you. He's a great guy to deal with and his prices are always really good.
