Does it look like this where your driveshaft goes?

 

thats a rough pic but looks like a 8.25 to me, the dimple in the top if the cover is why I think this. plus how the housing is kind of square and how it hangs down on the bottom of the cover... but hard to be 100% with that pic. if its a 8.25 27 spline, and the locker is for a 8.25 27 spline and cheap... I would run it if you going to stay at 33's.... but on 35's locked they say the 27 spline is weak. IDK I have never ran one.... p;us the 29 spline has alloy options I don't think the 27 has alloy options. ( haven't seen them for a 27. could be wrong)

 

I'm not sure I have a clue what your saying ^_^

this has some clear pics of a 8.25

 

look at the link I just posted the on second pic if the housing doesn't have the ***** on top it isn't a 8.25

 

 

anyone have experience with limiting straps? I am going to buy some for mine, just curiouse If I need to get the "4" ply ones or not, and if I should get them 2" shorter then my measurement as they are going to be about 26-28" to compensate for stretch?

 

yep 8.25

 

how bout if I say look at the housing from the front where the driveshaft goes in

 

yes that is a 8.25

 

I only had plans to stay at 31 when I started this now I'm on my way to 33

 

call jc at midnight 4x4 in slc he has limiting straps in stock tristin

Got it :-)

 

then I would go with a 29 before you lock it so that your not at its limit, and wanting more later.... But if you think that your done with going bigger (are you ever really done?) then you could lock it. Or throw in the locker for cheap and go big later with 1 tons ect.... lol
