Re: my new toy!!
brett, that rear is the corperate rear, with an Eaton HO52 diff. We normally just refer to it as the Eaton, or HO52. Very tough rear, but parts are getting hard to find.
This is assuming it is a C/20, and not a C/30. If it is a C/30, then all above is the same except the name, and it would then be the HO72. Looks like a good buy for twice the price. Last edited by Longhorn Man; 01-17-2010 at 04:33 PM. |

Re: my new toy!!
Good deal!
It's kind of funny how so many 71 & 72s have that piece of grill missing to get to the hood release Last edited by Mondo; 01-17-2010 at 04:36 PM. |
