- Bill, assuming the axle in question has not been disturbed, its serial number should yield the information: CT for 3.7:1, BT for 4.1:1. I'd bet on the latter if the car had overdrive as original equi

- Hoo boy. Now I'M really confused as well. Guess I'd better try this myself again. Admittedly, the last time I did it was with a "locked" rear end. Obviously that time I didn't stop one wheel. Next ti
