Has anyone put a XL7 rear axle in a GV? Sounds like a good upgrade. 5.12s and 28 spline sounds too good to be true, something must be wrong, cause I havent heard of anybody doing it.

Hey Mike,
Yup it is too good to be true. First off, no TAD of any kinda available. Welding it in the only option.
No gears available, so it's 5.12's forever.
The axles are 28 spline, and much bigger than the Kickers in diameter, but the shafts them selfs are even bigger and pencil down where the splines are, meaning the shaft doesn't have much torsional properties, and might twist the splines off.
Now on the ++ note, the diff is MASSIVE, bigger than a Toy 8". It's got a neato CV driveshaft that's a true CV and not a double carden. The drum brakes are huge as well.
And it's "Pure Suzuki" FWIW.
I'm going with solid Toys on my GV and a Kicker 2 to bring it all home. I need to "Shannon-proof" it.
You think you might be ablt to ever make it out to 'Gon Zookin'? Both our trucks have changed greatly since we saw each other last out in Moab 2002.
