Rear End Paint Markings #660566 04/04/10 12:15 PM 04/04/10 12:15 PM

The markings on mine look to be 078(?) on the housing, and 3 orange and 2 black stripes on the pumpkin. I think Mopar Action had them listed at one time, but I can't find it. Any help would be appreciated. 5907050-HPIM3022.JPG (1788 downloads)

It varied depending on many variables... I've seen the circled X, I've seen A's B's etc.. My Challenger has a large FE on the back.... 5907957-axle2.jpg (1086 downloads)

The 078 probably meant an 8-3/4 with 3.91 gears and would have been found on the build sheet. This is from a 1990 Guide to Muscle Cars magazine. The article was on Roger Gibson and his knowledge of 1970 cars specifically. The pic hers is a 71-B-Body. 5908115-Axle2.jpg (2062 downloads) Last edited by cdp; 04/04/10 10:19 PM.
