Rear Axle ID... help.
Hey Guys, I got this axle and was told that it was a ford 9 inch. Thankfully I haven't paid for it yet. It looks like a 9 inch housing and has a drop out center section. But it doesn't have a removeable pinion support housing.... Any body have any idea what this thing is.......?
Later, Kevin

Not a 9". A 9" you need a wrench on the bottom bolts.
I just noticed the non removable pinion. That could be a dodge 8-3/4"

Thanks Stephen, Thats what I thought at first but the 8 3/4s that I have seen have the top 2 bolts close together and a pinion snubber mount above the pinion....
I'll just give it back to the guy tomorrow.
THanks again, Kevin
