Any ideas on where to get this info? Where are the #'s located on the housing? | | | | | Joined: Sep 2001 Posts: 109 Member | | Member Joined: Sep 2001 Posts: 109 | Im no Corvette expert, but I found out about mine doing a search for C4 corvette info. I believe yours is a C3 (covette 3rd generation) and was used until 1983 (yes, there were about 17 1983 Vettes made, don't everyone yell at me! ) Do a google search C3 Corvette specs, go from there!

There are two types of the C3 rear suspension, early ('68-'80) and late ('81-'82). www.corvetteforum.com or www.corvettefaq.com might be able to help. | | | | | Joined: Apr 2002 Posts: 142 Member | | Member Joined: Apr 2002 Posts: 142 | Thanks guys ! I did find out that it is 77 or older because the spring is 2-1/4". It also has a tag that says fill with limited slip posi fluid which I found when I cleaned it up last night. | | |
