    Question 10 bolt Camaro???

     



    Well, looks like I may have stepped into it. I was looking for an 81 Camaro rear and finally found a 10 bolt on ebay that wasn't 2000 miles from home. I got it for 50.00 and drove over and picked it up. I should have pulled the cover and found the three broken teeth on the ring and pinon. [Frown] Everything else looks ok but should I junk it and start over looking for another rear or should I have the gears replaced?
    The id on it is J150.

    You shouldn't have expected much more for $50. ,but this way you can get the ratio you want. I'd rebuild it it's not that hard.

    Some of the guys here might know better but I've heard GM changed that 10 bolt beginning in 82.
