Rear End Decode
I have what I believe is an early seventies rear end (mostly because of the larger yoke) in my 64. I know it is a 3.08 POSI because I checked by the number of turns before I put everything together. Drove it for about 7 miles this past fall, and I know it's geared too high for my liking. I would like to re-gear it to 3.36, but want to be sure I buy the right gears. I can't see the case # from under the car, but what I can see is:
Bottom of case 04(or A)173
Side of case F117
Cover PN 3871375
If someone could decode this I would really appreciate it.
Thanks,
Ray

I think there should be a two or three digit letter code Identifying it.
Ecklers and lots of other sites have a chart you can look at
Here is one....

Sorry, Just reread your post. If you are wanting to just buy gears, 63-79 are the same. The only time I think anything changes if you are trying to put a 4 series gear on a 3 series carrier or vice-versa,
