I have a '71 Buick Skylark that I got cheap for some general A-body parts. I am wondering if the rear-end is junk, or if it would be worth it to put in my '68 chevelle? It's an open 10 bolt Buick rearend. Did they make a 8.2" and 8.5" like chevy 10 bolts, or are they all the same? Also, how can I tell the ratio without taking off the cover. On a posi, its easy, just turns wheel and count driveshaft turns. But on an open diff, should I just do the same (only jack up one wheel) and divide by two? If I found some numbers, is there anyplace I could look them up for a Buick?
If anyone needs any A-body parts (or Skylark) parts, email me. They'll be cheap.
