Re: Need help to ID rearend

Is there a way to identify what car it came off of to help with buying brake parts down the road?

No 10 bolt came original in these trucks. Eaton HO's have 10 bolt covers, as do Dana 60's.

I should have put this in the 55-57 fourm. The axle is in a 1956 3100 SWB. I think it may have came out of a camaro.

I had a friend tell me the stamp is located on the passenger side axle tube 6" over from the pumpkin. I will try that.

Re: Need help to ID rearend

I found the stamped number on the pasenger side tube.

It reads : 6GF P066D

Does anyone have a link that helps decode this number?
