I was wandering what the difference between an S-10 or S-10 blazer rear end and a Camaro rear end? I've been told they are the same thing. Is this true? Sorry if this is in the wrong section it's the only one I could think of it would fit. Thanks alot Boes

 

did you look at or consider the transmissio nand drive line board? s10 and thirdgen f body rears aren't the same and won't bolt in

 

the only reason I asked is because they both have a 700-R4 tranny and someone told me there the same thast all I asked i'm clueless I just have an S-10 rear end at one of my buddies with a posi and just wandered if i could olt it up. thanks alot Boes

 

The only thing that is the same between the 2 of these rearends is the fact that they are both 10 bolts. The S10 rearend is a leaf spring suspesion rearend and the Camaro rearend is a coil with lower control arms and a torque arm mount. Totally different mounting. It will NOT bolt in. The only thing that might interchange, and I'm not even sure this is true, is the guts (carrier, ring and pinion, axles). I hope this helps.

 

Thanks alot I was juist wandering thast all because I have been told by a few people that you can change them out if you change the mounts! I haven't did any figuring I just figured I'd put it up here to see what everyone else thought. Thanks fro the info Later Boes

 

Yeah, they're way too different to swap the entire rear out. They are the same "model" of rear though, namely the 7½" 10-bolt; so alot of internal parts do in fact swap, subject to year model differences (axle spline count); but externally, they are quite different.

 

Thanks again for the info maybe thats what they were talking about when they told me. I think I need to go chat with one of my buddies
