The bearings on my axle are in terrible condition but I have no idea what axle it is. It doesnt look like any of the ones on the chart below.
My dads friend had a look and didnt think it even looked like a mopar axle. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Look at the last photo you posted, there's no question that it's a Chrysler rear.
 
hey i got a question as well.....i (up until this thread) thought i had a 7 1/4 rearend but i went and counted the bolts and counted 10......that cant be correct right
 
It's an 8-1/4". I know the picture shows the 8-1/4 having a more oval shaped cover but I had 1 that the cover was more round like yours.
 
Thanks a load for all the replies, it was the more oval shape on the picture and different cover that threw me but after searching on the 8 1/4" thats definitely what it is. Thanks again!
 
That's one thing that's off on that chart. It throws people off really bad because they are looking for an oval rear cover and the Chrysler 8.25 is much more round.
 
Thats an 8 1/4 with an early cover. My old 76 dart had that same cover on it factory with 2.45"s in it
