Before I get flamed, I've searched and not found my answer. I have a 27 spline 8.25 and want to swap it to 29 spline. Here is my question. Everyone says that inorder to do this swap you must swap the carriers, why, what is different about the carriers? Why can't I just throw in a 29 spline lunch box locker and 29 spline axles? What are the differences in the carriers?
 
Axle shafts are not splines to a carrier. They slide in but the only thing they are splined to are the spiders. If they were splined to the carrier it would be a spool. are the shafts larger in diameter will they physically not fit into the carrier?
