Locker question

just got a detroit locker for me 10bolt rear. i was doing some drinking last night with my friends dad, and i got the box to show him since he was thinking about getting a locker too. on the box it said 30 spline and ratio of 3.08
I know that i have 3.73 gears since i just put thim in 41-11 teeth....anyways, will this still work with my rear end...does the ratio even matter.
also, do my axles have 30 splines. they're locked i nthe shop right now so i can't count them. its in a 96 Z-71 10bolt rear.
Thanks for the help guys, I'm just gonne abe upset if i have to wait for another week to get more parts and have it rolling again.

Re: Locker question

thats exactly what i wanted to hear. I was gonna be really upset if i had to wait for a new locker to get here...then re-shim the gears to get everything lining up properly again.
looks like I"ll be back behine the wheel of it tomorrow. I've got to go do some playing around and see how the locker handles.
Thanks again,
