Default 8.25 27 to 29 spline swap?

I'd really like to lock the 8.25 that I have in my rig but its a 27 spline shaft. can i swap in 29 spline shafts with a 29 spline locker with out ring and pinion/carrier swap?

Yes you can. I am in the process of trying to find 29 spline shafts to lock on my 27 8.25.

The locker would have to be a full case 29 spline locker. If the locker isn't a full case locker, you will need a 29 spline carrier as well.
