gear size?

I can get a 7.5" 3.73 posi dirt cheap. I have always thought my car was 7.5", but my friend says that they are bigger than that.....Since I have a stock rear end in my car, what size would it be?

7.5 and 7.62 are the same thing, parts interchange. you might want to see what kind of rear you have before you worry about what size it is. count the cover bolts.

considering the age it could have a 9 bolt or dana 44 swaped into it at some point in time, but only a 10 bolt from the factory.
