Dave, The numbers I would get will be Carquest
P/N's. When I did my rear, I just told them which parts I needed and they
provided them. I have replaced the axle seals twice,since I narrowed the rear
last fall and bought Moser axles. But I have had no issues getting the correct
parts. Your center housing should have a casting number and a date code.
This would narrow down the possible rears that could have been put in your car.
If it is a BOP and non c clip rear I am pretty sure it would be 66 or
earlier.

10 bolt is a 64 and original to my car. My 64 GTO has exactly the same rear.
I think we assumed your rear was a 66 BOP. Could it have been changed out by
a previous owner? Must have been.
I'll be at my local parts store later today and can get part numbers
for my rear, axle bearing, seals etc. But yours may be different. Can you
read any numbers off the center housing that might be casting numbers or
date codes? Is there an axle code stamped on the RS axle tube? These may
help with positive ID. Let me know if I can help. Mike
I looked on top passenger tube &
couldn't find any numbers. i can look again in the morning. Your #'s
would help, I bet the axle bearing on yours is RW-507-CR I can find these,
but mine is RW-507-G or RW-507-GR.
It's much bigger diameter OD &
ID. thanks.
- Here in Dallas they have no idea. I can't find the axle
bearings
- anywhere. Seems they are not available anywhere. & I have
spent
- hrs on the phone. The ones that I can get are to small
RW-507-CR.
- RW-507-CR are 2.749 OD X 1.380 ID.
- I need RW-507-G 2.890 OD X 1.437 ID & .740 thick, sealed
ball
- bearing . I can even use used ones (can be re-packed).
- Help! Maybe I should have bought a Ranchro F**D , sorry I
cussed.
- Why my 66 Elky ended up with this rear end I don't know...
