rear axle help

[oldrodder43]

hello all. I have a rear axle from a 4 x 4 S-10 blazer. I don't know what year it is from. The numbers on the pumpkin are
GM-O K
14030352 N
On axle HK B C17 2
I may not have these exact. Some were hard to read. I'd like to know the year. Thanks for any help. Perley

call local dealership parts counter

tell them axle stamping code HK and the year make model it is from

they will look it upand tell you ratio and if "posi" or not


posi in these actualyl is gov lok garbage

replace it with good unit

i would opt for a ford explorer posi axle they are dirt cheap in yards and wont grenade on you like these chevy ones will


70 bucks for an explorer axle around here in the yards

bolts right in


use the ford pinion driveshaft yoke with napa conversion u joint
