No axles, bearings, or posi unit Tommy? Where is the ring and pinion? You said it was a 3.55 ratio. WHAT???

[Plowman]

The code reads 3:55 on the axle tube. Does that help. *Paul

Sammy..don't break my chops <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/headbang.gif

The ad says <span style="font-weight: bold">&quot;12 Bolt Housing&quot;...</span>, it doesn't say complete rear with all the internals...if I was selling a &quot;bare engine block&quot;, would you ask me where the rods, pistons and crank were <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/hmmm.gif

The 3.55 BT rear was a common application for 69 Camaros and Novas...that's why it is listed...you probably have one in your blue Nova <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/scholar.gif

So..do you want to buy it, or just critique the ad??

Luv, Tom

[Salvatore]

well just think of ALL the bump time you are getting Tom.

[Plowman]

Why so much money,you can buy it new for that. It is not a 4:88 or so.

Let's play nice fellas!!!! <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif

Do the new repop housings have the stamped numbers on them?

[WILMASBOYL78]

No...the aftermarket does not provide this...some people re-stamp or alter the stamps on original housings..but, that's another movie <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/rolleyes.gif

This is an original GM housing which has been restored and is ready to be completed by the next owner. I thought about adding the internals, but anyone who wants this for the date stamp/code would probably want a dated posi and gears, etc. So, it really didn't make sense for me to go further...

I do have a GM 4 series carrier and 4.10 GM gears if someone wants to go that route.

Please feel free to call or email if you need more info..thanks SYC.

Then I guess it is worth what the buyer is willing to pay.

[Salvatore]

yea I know some of those guys Tommy. They are the ones worried about dated ring and pinions and internals but are the same guys that restore their cars with Chinese sheetmetal.

[Plowman]

Were the spring perches replaced from being twisted or metal-fatigue.

[WILMASBOYL78]

They were not on the housing when I got it...so new ones were installed during the resto.

Thanks..Tom

[WILMASBOYL78]

How is it in-side of the rear blown-up at some time or some how,this is the business work end.

[WILMASBOYL78]

Inside is fine..no issues.
