Default z06 Axles help

I would like to thank everybody on this forum for all your help in my ongoing project of adding a Z06 rearend to my 2005 Z51 corvette.

I just installed a Z06 rearend to my 2005 Z51 Corvette. Do the axles from my Z51 fit the Z06 rearend or do I need Z06 axles?

GUD TWN will hopefully ride again soon!

Bob

I believe the inner splines are different.

They're not different.


The C6 Z06 differential perfectly accepts the stock C6 CV axles.
