new one has the bearing on it.

The one on the right is a 12-Bolt Pinion gear.
I spent quality time with mine, doing my first ever ring and pinion swap from scratch, and I recognize that in an instant.
I have no idea what the one on the left is.

He stated the new gear was on the right...maybe he has a S60 housing???

That gear on the left has a smaller rear pinion bearing, it probably is a truck gearset. The 12 bolt truck had a diamond shape cover and a smaller bearing. Looks like the wrong part to me.

Weary of guessing without a part number.

I missed that part.
At this point, I would be looking for any numbers on the housing and the original gear set.

Is this in the '69 Camaro in your sig?

Have you contacted Strange?

If it is truck gear rear pinion bearing( next to teeth) is about .125'' smaller and bearing sets about .080'' closer to teeth(pinion is deeper in housing).
