any aluminum drive shaft you find will fit, long as it's from a f body. best way to find the type a nd ratio is to pull the cover and look. wouldn't hurt to change the gear oil and additive.

Do you have the manual trans? If so, it sounds like you've got the 3.73 with Eaton gov-lock. Got rear discs on it? That's the same axle I put into my '86 Firebird; except I got mine from an '84 Trans-am.

In Fact, now that I think about it, I think 6HS was the code on my axle!
