What year 8.25 diff / need help ID
Fittrjoe,
My car is a 1975 Valiant/Scamp Brougham with a 318 and 8 1/4 rear with an open 2:45 pinion gear. Car is original with only 32,840 miles. I have researched it thoroughly.
I found an old e-mail to Ratech, who I bought the correct carrier bearing for the new sure grip I was putting in. I measured this old race at (OD 2.891). The first bearings I ordered were too big for the housing. I am not sure if your housing is the same year as mine, but I found a pic of mine. The number on the housing could have been used in multiple years? I hope this helps you.
