====8.75 inch 10-bolt==== This rearend was used in some mid-'70s Chevrolet station wagons, Impala, Caprice, some Chevelles, El Caminos, usually with larger engines and/or heavy duty options (towing, etc.). Also ''possibly'' found in some Pontiac LeMans, some 1977 Buick Regals and Cadillac models (needs confirmation). Can be found with either 28 or 31 spline axles. It has a 10-bolt cover with indentions next to the axle tubes and 12 bolts holding the ring gear to the carrier (the bolts have a 3/4" hex head, right hand threads). The pinion nut is 1-1/4", it has 3" axle tubes. This is a strong rearend, but unfortunately it was only used briefly and aftermarket support is poor.
