I believe you would need the 29-spline carrier.

I just did this mod on my 92 cherokee one of my axles had bad bearing wear, so i took it in to the local gear shop they sold me 29 splines from a 98 went in no problems I upgraded from open diff to a trac lock. The gear shop told me if I wanted to stay with the open diff I could use the same carrier just had to change the side gears from 27 to 29. Hope that helps.

Boy, that was stupid. :twak: Sorry, I'm tired.xjohnnyc said:
I was thinking about the open carrier vs. the trac-loc carrier. I had replaced my 27-spline open rear axle for a 29-spline axle with a No-slip installed in the trac-loc carrier.

No, I think you're right. Bill Burge had a 27 spline axle into which he wanted to put in 29 spline shafts and a no slip and it turned out that he needed a carrier from the 29 spline axle or he would have to machine it out to take the 29 spline shafts. Best bet would be to take the 27 spline housing and getting a detroit and 29 spline shafts.
