    selling an original 1970 skylark rear axle, drum to drum.
    i pulled this from a running driving car last summer. it was in good working condition with no leaks or noise. i do not know the gear ratio, but it is not posi. i think it is a 7.5 but i am not sure. axle has mild surface rust that will easily clean up with sos pad or light chemical cleansing. comes with the factory upper and lower control arms.
    if needed, i can provide the casting number, date codes etc. photos available upon request.
    local pick up available in anthony new mexico, or i can strap it to a pallet and ship it to you.
    $125.00

    If you had a couple of pics then we could help you identify it. After 38 years it could have been swapped out at some point for a 71 to 72 8.5 rear which would be even better.

    i pulled this out of an original 58000 mile 4 door that i parted out last summer.
    it appeared to be original.
    anyway, i have sent pics to another member, let me know if your still interested.

    pics have been sent, still waiting for reply.
    sometimes i wonder, why does it take so long to make a decision.

    Usually no answer means no go...Usually...BUT not always...lol. I think most people are hoping it is not original and is a 8.5 10 bolt rear.


    You really should give a location because the people in your area are more likely to buy aince shipping is very heavy. :) Jim

    I would like to know where in the country you are...I buy cores to build. I always would really like a ratio ... If the tubes are fairly clean you can take some sand paper of a air sander and clean the tube off on the (what would be ) bottom of the axle tube on the driver side for a a letter suffix code. This will tell you the ratio that is in the diff. Jim
