Damn, wish I could grab a deal like that, Id get my leather seats and still have something to play with when I was done. Nice score. What are the plans for this?

rebuild the front diff and let the girl drive it as a DD
her truck gets 12mpg so this will be an improvment

in case anyone wanted to know in 97 they switched to a slip in cv axle instead of a bolt on flange, but if you get the cv shafts from a 96 they will work

i ordered a front diff from north dakota out of a 96 bravada and the ends were different so ineeded to change my cv shafts to the old style but the bravada is now all fixed, registered and im driving it around
