Need help identifying this rear
I got these numbers off of my axel H2B 351. Stamped on the housing I saw the letter "A" and what was either a "N" or "Z". The car is 71 Cutlass 4dr. Any help on identifying this rear in terms of gears and if its correct for this car plus other helpful info would be appreciated.

1971 cutlass
Well being a 1971 cutlass...It will most likely be a 8.5 10 bolt rear diff and have bolt in axles with 28 spline axles.
Check the pictures and see if the rear cover looks like the one below ...

I'm fairly confident that it is a 28 spline and know that its a 10 bolt but my real problem is the 8.5 part. A few guys have put the idea in my head that it could possibly be an 8.2 instead of the 8.5. Currently I have an open diff and want a posi so I am trying to figure out what i have. Im hoping the casting # will help.

rear end ID
Can you post pictures of your diff??? If so we will ID the rear for you.
Does the yoke use u-bolts and nuts to hold the u-joint to the yoke on the rear? OR does it use 2 straps and 4 screw in bolts to hold the u-joint in place?
