I bought this car last year and it can be assumed that the stock rear is still in the car, that being a rear from a 88 SC 2.8, that being 3.42 gears, No posi and drum brakes.

My question How far can I go on a 10 bolt build up, what parts should I really be looking at and could somebody please show me some URL's. *first person to show a link to a 12 bolt or 9" deserves a kick in the *****

28 spline axles, posi carrier, gears of your choice, install kit, solid sleeve instead of crush sleeve, weld axle tubes to center section, rear cover girddle

Wow that's amazing I never thought a rear end buildup could be so cheap, I was for a time cosidering changing over to 9 bolt because I've heard a lot about how solid they are, but then I started reading more and realized how expensive and hard it is to get parts so I opted out.


I'd still like to see the specs on a built 9 bolt vs. a Built 10 bolt though.

so for someone who has a newer axle with 28splines aready in it...

posi carrier (with new bearings)
gears of your choice
solid sleeve instead of crush sleeve
weld axle tubes to center section
rear cover girddle
