Re: question, G body 7.5 rear life
Where or Who do you guys recommend for a 12 bolt replacement? Moser/Strange? Thinking of ordering a bolt in 12 bolt for a 4th Gen Camaro... I'm thinking it would be best to just order the whole ball of wax at one time..

Re: question, G body 7.5 rear life
[QUOTE=Jerry Terry;625161]You are right Greg the G Vans were horrible with rear end howling new or used years ago ive had race car rear ends that didnt howl as bad as them. going back to the original question go ahead and buy the good stuff now for a 12 bolt and then no worries.
The G-van rear axle howl was always kinda figured to be attributable to the fact that the operator was driving a huge "speaker" down the road. Or maybe better referred-to as a megaphone. Pickups probably had noise too, but you just couldn't hear it in the cab. |

Re: question, G body 7.5 rear life
This isn't directly related but when I built the Pacer I put a V8 AMC 20 rear end in it, 8 7/8 ring gear. Thinking putting the original 6 cylinder rear end in it would pick it up, I put together an AMC 15 (Dana 35) with the 7 9/16 ring gear. Results were I didn't see any improvement in the et. I haven't broken the Dana 35 but I didn't see any gain. Same ratio in both cases.
