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

Re: 1969 12 bolt 3.55 posi..
 

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

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

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 [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/hmmm.gif[/img]

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 [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/scholar.gif[/img]

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

Luv, Tom

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

Re: 1969 12 bolt 3.55 posi..
 

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

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

Re: 1969 12 bolt 3.55 posi..
 

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

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.

Re: 1969 12 bolt 3.55 posi..
 

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.

Re: 1969 12 bolt 3.55 posi..
 

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

Re: 1969 12 bolt 3.55 posi..
 

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

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

Re: 1969 12 bolt 3.55 posi..
 

Inside is fine..no issues.
