I was told its a nine inch rearend - but looking at the bolt pattern its a "square circle" rather then a circle pattern. So i am thinking its the stock 8" rearend. I am gonna be going to the junkyard next month to buy a third member and rebuild it with 3.73:1 gears - or if i can get one cheap - i will buy a new one. Anyways can anyone tell me what the 8" rearends came with in 1974? I.E. spline count ect ect... I am also looking at getting a locker rear for full time posi. I was told this one is posi but haven't check it and the only time i have broken the tires loose it did not leave the twin marks. So i figure while i am taking car of that end i will add a posi. Any recomendations on what locker or posi unit that is cheap and good for under 500rwhp total? Thanks David
