made my day!!!

so as a few of you know I have been hunting for a diffrent rear end for my 77 long bed 2wd for some time now cause i did the wheel spin trick to find out what i had and kept coming up with extreme highway gears. Well I went out tonight and pulled the cover off and counted the ring and pinion and hoorah!!! 41 and 11 calculate that and its 3.73!! exactly what i was looking for lol had it the whole time. and turns out that I think I have a posi inut too. I included a pic let me know what Im looking at cause i really dont know. from the cover it looks like it has been very low on fluid for some time now and its had really heavy wight fluid in it wich i believe is wrong if it is a posi. Also there are alot of gouges and a dark spot were you can see it has been welded. theroy:PO blew the rear end up, welded the cover and replaced the unit. thanks all im very happy now.
