Just making sure I know what kind of rear diff i have.
Guessings its a C8.25 from what Ive read about the flat lip on the bottom. The build date is 9/96 and my engine uses parts for a 97 (like the TPS, which has a diff connector from 96/97.

Would my axles most likely be the 27 or the 29 and is this a 8.25" axle?

Thanks
 
Yes it would be either 27 or 29 spline.To be sure, open it up and count the splines.

8.25

If your vehicle has a late 96 build date and is using other 97 style parts, the axle is "probably" a 29-spline, but since the locker has to be correct you really should do as Wayne suggested and count the splines to be certain.
 
I would most certainly count before ordering anything.

My '96 built 10/96 has 29 (verified by myself), and just like yours has '97+ engine connectors.

HTH, but count anyway.

Build date on my 96 is 12/95 and had a 27 spline axle,but some of the electrials are 97+ (o2 sensor as example)
