Here's a couple pics of my rear axle. I think it's a 8.5 10 bolt. I want a posi, limited slip, locker or whatever for it.
Any thoughts, comments, suggestions? Besides the fact it needs gaskets and seals...

Don't take these pictures as gospel, I have seen 8.5 rears with the pointed lugs like in the pic to the right but the cover was more round like the one in the middle...

Thanks DS. I finally got out and measured the rear.
Flange to flange (without drums)
59".
I looked for a ID no. stamped on the passenger side axle tube.
It's either painted over or welded over. I couldn't find one.
