The rear axle will be a HO52 or 72, the 72 has a big adjustment bolt on the left side of the pumpkin for ring gear deflection. Not sure about the HO52's but the 72's have 4.57,5.14 and I think 6.17 gears. I'm not sure about the last gear but the other I'm sure of because I have one with each. Some even come with Detroit lockers, they are good axles.
