Default Lock Right 8.25 ?

I have a stock 8.25 27 spline. If put in new 29 spline axles and a Lock Right for 29 spline do i have to replace anything else in the rear for the 29's to fit? Thanks

you will still need a new carrier. the carrier on the 29 spl has a bigger bore than the 27 Spl, so if you buy a 29 spl locker and try to put it in a 27 spl carrier, the side gears will not fit inside the bore
