I just cursed the axle shaft that I had shipped to me from Superior axle. It is about an inch shorter than the shaft I took out. Turns out it is for a 65-69.
All of the axle manufacturers seem to think that 1970 axles have 5 lugs or at least that is what their internet sites say-my '70 has 6. Anyone know the OEM part number for the 1970 12 bolt, series 10 axle shaft? Can I get an aftermarket replacement that uses the original 6 bolt pattern?
