Having trouble finding spider gears for 8.8 limited slip for a 28 spline axle

[BobSacamano]

I can’t find them anywhere. Anyone have any ideas? What are my options? Try to find them at the junkyard or get 31 spline axles as the spider gears are plentiful for them?If I have to go that route, are the ring and pinion gears compatible with 31 spline axles? I guess the wheel bearings and seals would have to be changed.

New spiders and new clutches are both $100+. ECGS will sell you a loaded carrier for $300, so that seems like the easy-button.

I also start letting my scope creep. A junkyard 31spl is $200 here, so add clutches and for the same money + extra work, you could have 31spl.

EDIT: The lunchbox LS won't fit a trac-lok carrier, and the truetrac is like a billion dollars now.
