rear end question
I have a 70 chevy 4wd and was wondering if the 12 bolt 4wd in 70 is the same as a 72 chevy 4wd 12 bolt

Re: rear end question
I believe the 72 is longer than the 70. It has to do to front disc brakes added in 71.

Re: rear end question
On the two wheel drive trucks, the 70-72 rears are the same width. Not sure on the 4x4, but logic suggests it would be... But you know how that goes.

Re: rear end question
One other question the drums are smooth on the 70 and the 72 are finned. Did they switch in 72. Thanks
