It had a 12 bolt in it when I bought it, but I can't use it because it is worn out. What I need to know is what other cars/trucks had a rear end that will bolt up under there. I am using a T350 automatic trans, and have the RB's bolt on mustang II front end. Please help me out!!!
If at first you dont succeed, try a bigger hammer.

I know that I can probably go with a rear end out of any chevy car that has that pattern but I want posi so does anyone know of a rear that will fit under there? | | |

The wagon had bigger brakes than the sedans, which I thought was a plus. Mine is not posi, but I've seen similar cars with posi rears, so I know they are out there.
