FAQ: Rear End Ratios

<< < (2/7) > >>

steveo:
It looks like  18 6 7 224C    it's a little hard to read, but i'm pretty sure that's right

WGF-AL
3.18 6.7
1978 PINTO 3.18 RATIO 6.75 RING GEAR 23 SPLINE AXLES

I just "SCORED" a rear from a 78 cobra II, as well as the front and rear sway bars and assorted parts. The rear has a tag:

wdy oaan 7jd
40 8 244c

I am assuming that it has 3.40 gears (I know it is an 8 inch), am I correct? I did check the rotation and it seems to be about that for sure (spining both hubs at the same time).

Boy I want the whole car, still has the engine/tranny, but the car is soooooo rough.

I plan to transplant the meatball into the 68 rear I have in the pinto (it currently has 2.79's), It should fit... right???

Pintony:
Pretty sure the rear axel tag would say WFK... if it were a Posi.
Besides the L that would be in the 3l.40 which is sometimes crushed by the retaing bolt.
