Where is the rear end code on my 83 Camaro's rear end? I'm thinking it's a 3.08 but wanting to make sure, Thanks for your help!

The codes are a very poor way to "make sure"... take off the cover and look. Have you changed the fluid lately? Then the cover needs to come off anyway; just look at it while you're doing the scheduled maintenance.

Mine was on the axle tube right next to the center section. It was on the passenger side though. I think it was on the passenger side for 83s. Get under there with some sand paper and a flashlight...good luck! Your best bet is to open it up like RB said. Fluid probably needs changing anyway

the code doesn't prove anything other than what the general built it with not what it has. if you want to be sure pull the cover ,lot easier too.
