    What gears were available in the 1970 for the 8.2 rear? I am getting two rearends a standard and a posi the posi has 273 gears. What size ring gear can the 273 carrier go up to. Assume this is like a 2 series carrier. Thanks

    Phil I think you can go up to a 3.42. The 3.64, 3.90 etc are on a bigger carrier.
