Info on this rear end?

Also any info on what it is that i have here or where exactly i need to be looking to ID it


anything would be of great help thanks

In a word, no.

It is outdated, and not upgradable. Not sure what it is, maybe Eaton. At any rate You can pick up a Ford 9 inch fairly reasonable, or if you want to go big, 14 bolt.

Thats what i was thinking thanks for the help



if strong enough the idea of original rear end was kinda cool. i guess i will be using a 9"

have two to chose from, one is 58" small bearing 28 spline with a detriot thats under a 69 bronco in the back yard. i like it because the front axle is also 58"

the second is a light duty 59.25" small bearing with posi, i want to say it is a 31 spline but may also be 28. Will probably go with this one since the engine and trans are also being harvested from the same car [/IMG]

I wonder how that car rode with the traction bars slammed to the leaf spring.

In a word......
