It says removed from 76 Lincoln but I don't beleive it. It has a speed sensor on the yoke which I think is ABS or cruise. Either way, I could not pass up for the Camaro. It will be way easier to install than the 12 bolt I was going to use.
I won't be using the offset link. I will be using a center link so I can retain back seats. Now to get this thing stripped and mounted under the car!

make sure you did not pick up a 9 3/8" rear, see ~ mid way through:
http://www.kevinstang.com/Ninecase.htm
conventional wisdom is that the 9 3/8 is not as strong as the 9". but the center sections
are swappable, and you have 31 spline axles. but probably a 2.50:1 or 2.75:1 ratio.
