Re: what trucks came with a 10bolt rear?
I've never seen a 67-72 with one. Just 12 bolts and 3/4 & 1 ton full floaters.
I think only 73+ had 10 bolts

Re: what trucks came with a 10bolt rear?
maybe it started in 82?
I suspect the OP is counting rear end cover bolts instead of going by the axle's actual name. Is this a C/20 with 8 lug wheels? |

Re: what trucks came with a 10bolt rear?
The thing is, not all 10 bolts are the same. 12 bolts were in half tons and pretty much the same. Variations in the axle lengths and bolt patterns across the years.

Re: what trucks came with a 10bolt rear?
The number of bolts refers to how many bolts hold the ring gear to the carrier. I think it is a coincidence that it usually is the same as the amount of cover bolts. Someone correct me if I am wrong.
