rear gears swap question

would a stock 3.42 gear out of a 96Z28 M6. fit into a 98Z28 rear end with stock 2.73 gears? or do they have different carriers???
thanks!

the 2.73 has a 2 series carrier and the 3.42 has a 3 series.

i beleive you can buy a shim of some kind to make the swap possible...not sure

The only way to make it work would be to buy a different carrier and reluctor gear.
