rear axle

Hey everyone,

I was just wondering if a 12 bolt 72 chevy c10 5 lug axle would fit in my 65 burb, its a 6 lug i think its a 12 bolt also.

Re: rear axle

Only differance may be the pan hard bar/track arm lenth. The mount on the diff housing may be different between 65 vs 72.

I came across this issue when using a 67 C10 rearend on my last 64 C10.

Good luck!

edit:
The understanding is that the 63-64 and 65-72 trackarm are different in length.
So you actually may be OK if both rigs are 1/2 tons.

Good luck!
