Hope you find the axle, how did you know it was bent? Did you have any vibrations while driving it? If so what rpms?

Thanks
Mike

Well there was a noise coming from the rear while driving but there was no vibration, put it up on the rack at work (Sears Auto) and put in drive and spun the rear wheels you can see the wheel wabble back and forth and you can here the noise. To be sure it was not just the wheel i took the wheel of the car and put it on the spin balancer spun it up and stood back to see of it was the wheel that was warped but it wasnt it spun nicely so it has to be the axle shaft and bearing.I had the same thing happen on a 2003 Must@** GT so this aint my first rodeo on axles.

If you have the coin buy a new set from Strange Moser or curry.
Also put in new bearings and seals ..

Re: HELP! whare can i order a right axle at?

Not sure if they are available new. I would try a junkyard.

Here are some part numbers
1982 - 1988 RR axel (disc BRK) 22515440
1982 - 1988 RR axel (DRUM BRK) 22515441
1989 SHAFT RR axel (J50 & J41 or J42) 22515441
1990 - 1992 YO3 (exc J65) 26031251
1990 - 1992 (YO3, J65) 26031252


I KNOW that the B&W 9 bolt used a different shaft on the right & left as one was shorter, I assumed that the 10 bolt was the same. Apparently not as I did not find a reference to another shaft...

Re: HELP! whare can i order a right axle at?

I recently purchased new Moser axles from Summit (The 10-bolt axles are the same length). GM has discontinued them.

MSR-A102604 C Clip Axles $239.95
MSR-8254 Wheel Studs 12mm x 1 1/2 $19.95
Shop to press in the studs $20 or so.

Should anyone lack experience with bearings/seals, check the following sticky:
