10 bolt housing code?
 

Can anyone here tell me what this 8.5" 10 bolt came out of? It is in a 68 Camaro that I just bought.

Front passenger side of the axle housing has this number - JB G094 2

here is the only info i could come up with for those number's........

1971+ Rear Axle Code example: CB G 112 1 E
(CB = Ratio, G = Plant, 112 = 112th day of year, 1 = shift, E = Positraction Source)

cb=ratio G= Detriot Gear & Axle 94th day of the year 2=shift

Hollander's lists 3 possibles:

1. 73-74 Nova, 73-74 Ventura II (multi-leaf), 75 Apollo, 8.5", 3.08 (40-13), open

2. 72 Nova, 72 Ventura II (single leaf), 75 Apollo, 8.5", 2.73 (41-15), open

3. 80 Pontiac, 8.5", 3.23 (42-13), open

I think you probably have #1, if the leafs and all came with it (check the date on those).

8.5 in a 68 camaro
 

any of the GM X-bodys and cad sevilles had 8.5" the '75 and later versions had the 8.5 if v-8 equipped the 6 cyl then got a 7.5" rear - hope this helps
