Hi again, Can you tell which differentiel is this, i'm a bit confused, it's on my friend's 71 442 (455cu), I need to order axle bearing,
it's a 10 bolts for sure. Need to know if I have to remove cover to take out the "C" clips in order to remove the axle.
See the block "O" on the front face of the center section between the ribs? That definitively identifies it as a 8.5" 10 bolt rearend used in the '71-'72 model years.
Axle bearings should be SET9. Be aware that some of the oil seals are not the correct thickness. Monzaz has posted about this a lot: 712146 SEAL IS SUPPOSE TO MEASURE .490
Search the forum for his posts before buying parts. Or just buy the parts you need from him directly.
