$125? worth it. If you're doing a SAS. That axle is on an old square body Chevy, so the axle mounts will be different, no ABS compatibility. It will work, but if you're going to keep your Yukon IFS in front, I'd look for a newer 14 semi-float axle you can convert to 6-lug.

Not going to work. I looked into that and the amount of fabrication required to make the 8-lug stuff fit was tremendous. The 3/4 ton hub don't just bolt on, because the cv shafts are different, the 3/4 ton cv shafts don't fit because the mounting flange at the axle is different because the axle is different. And, since the axle is different, you need to put the 3/4 ton front axle cradle in. So you can see what I'm getting at.
EDIT: guess I should read slower, first time through my brain put IFS for SAS. Solid Axle Swap? if you got the money and the time, go for it.

If it was me...I'd find myself a 14 bolt before I'd buy larger tires. You can gear that axle then, and never have to worry about the 10 bolt blowing up on you
Also, a 14BFF can be converted down to 6 lugs.
