i was working and i went to our new 05 2005 HD truck and i was wondering how much bigger are the rear ends in then VS. the ones on our cars? could it be a direct replacement? i counted the bolts on it and it had 14.... could it possibly be stronger?

 

I think it's an 11" rear end. Basically, I doubt the extra strength would ever be needed, or at the least would not justify the extra weight and major modifications that would likely be required to make it fit.

 

Not to mention they weight a couple hundred pounds more.

 

huh, is there any like 12 bolts or like less than 9" rear ends that are a direct bolt on from a chevy vehicle?

 

Not directly into a camaro. Not that I know of. You can mod a ford 8.8 which is smaller and easier to find, but it's a little more modification and you might as well just get a 9" IMHO.

 

yeah i read threw the whole thread of the one dude who had a hybrid 8.8 and there was that person woh kept badgering him about the 9" lol

 

Hey, I read that post too! Another reason I didn't want a 9" is I sure do like my ABS. I'm running 3-channel ABS.

To date, my 8.8" is doing great.
