----AD----"I have for sale the following rear axles open axle from a 1971 BUICK SKYLARK,open axle from a 1966 PONTIAC CATALINA drum to drum,3:08 10 bolt from a 1973 OLDS 88, and a 3:08 POSI 10 bolt axle from a 1977 GRAND PRIX." ----AD----

This guy is about 25 miles away from me and 200 bucks takes it all.
Will any of these bolt right onto my 80-85 b bodies?

Or will the tires stick out 5'' past the wells

If they will, I'll get these and worry about a drive shaft after I get the th400 in.
I already broke my 2.41 ring and pinion with my 307. (I think the pinion had about 6 teeth left

)
I don't even want to know what will happen to my rear end when I drop the 455 in.
Cleaning all the "Glitter" out of the axle tubes for 2 days wasn't much fun.
