Re: rear axle from corvette
You are comparing an independent rear to a solid axle. Go look under the vette and then under your car and you will see.

No. Nothing interchanges between the vette rear and yours.

Yukon makes a Dura Grip that will fit in your Camaro rear end. It's the cheapest but good quality differential for the 7.5 10 bolt. You must know what your gear ratio is before you buy one.
