Re: axle spline

For the 10 bolt diffs

82-89 is 26 spline
90-92 is 28 spline

A late production year 89 may have 28 spline.

You can put 28 spline axles in an earlier car if you use a 28 spline carrier.

Re: axle spline

Also, all 9-bolts are 28 spline.

Re: axle spline

But they're not interchangeable with a 10 bolt diff.
