    Corp 14 bolt, different lengths?

    On 14 bolt axles, there are two widths. SRW and DRW pick up 14 bolt axle are 67" , chassis cab trucks have 63" axle. The housings are the same, the difference in the widths is in the off set on the hubs.

    Any One use EFI Live?

    no brake lights

    Brake light power goes from the brake light switch on the pedal to the turn signal switch, then to the lights. Possibly the turn signal switch is worn out. Put you foot on the brake and wiggle the turn signal lever, and see if the brake lights flicker.

    Suggestions for booster/ master cyl replacement.

    I have hydroboost on both 1 tons, motor-home, one C10 (was diesel) and put it on my Jeep truck. Going to put it on my wife's full size Cherokee too. It gives up to 3 times the brake pressure. You'll love it.
