Need 4th gen rear end

If anybody can point me in the direction of where to get a reasonably priced 4th gen rear end, I sure would be appreciative.

Re: Need 4th gen rear end

I've seen several V8 4th gens in the pick-your-part yards, but you gotta be willing to pull it yourself. If you are going to be choosy about gear ratios, your options diminish substantially.

Re: Need 4th gen rear end

Thanks for the tip.

Since the gears in my existing rear end suddenly became nothing but a pile of shrapnel, I'm more interested in getting the car going again than finding the ideal ratio.

Re: Need 4th gen rear end

Yeah, sure you can find a fourth-gen rear end at a "pick-your-part" junkyard, but most are basic non-limited slip, drum brake rear ends from v6's mostly.

So it makes it the same as a '90-'92 third-gen with the same 28 spline axles accompanied by a non-limited slip rear end and drum brakes. It's pretty hard to find something other than that at a junkyard unless you camp out early perhaps or know a good jy.
