    Does anyone know if the rear brake hose bracket that bolts to the rear end is different for a 10 vs 12 bolt?

    I believe the Chevy 12 bolt uses a bracket that bolts into one of the top cover holes like this: http://www.bionicengineering.net/media/DSC02417.JPG

    While the 10 bolt Buick has a threaded hole on the top of the housing for the same purpose without an additional bracket like this: http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2006/09/axle-prep-34.jpg

    Greg, thanks for the pics, a good visual explains it perfectly! It was a long time ago that I took it apart and swapped rears so I couldn't remember
