The Dodge Challenger Message Board

hi guys. i decoded the motor and the transmission which was fairly easy after learning of many internet web sites. i noticed that know one does codes for the rear axle. my car has the super track pack 9+3/4 rear axle. is there dates or part #'s to look for. any help is appreciated.

See the rear, where the axle tube meets the center section, on the right side,(of the diff cover), there are casting numbers. The books to de-code all Chrysler casting components are available from www.gvgovier.com they are referred as Galens little white books. These will pay for themselves MANY times over ensuring you get the right castings and saving you heartache and cash! Or you can post the numbers and I will de-code them for you. Glad to do it.

Another pic, you can see the numbers at the top right ,in between the two lines, danged camera, I need to get a new one but I'm always broke from buying tools and parts. What an addiction.

Don't know if this is any help?

I believe Danny's code should read 081 (last three numbers on the tag), Mine should be 079 both with 10" rear drums and front disc brakes, manual transmission, according to galen's casting book and Daves chart. The I.D. with the three digit numbers are located on the white strap wrapped around the axle tube located on the far left side. The first pic, the eddies shock covers the white tag.

thank you steady eddie and dave for the info. just got this info. just to busy working on my motor problem right now but i am excited to check the rear end. it does look like eddies rear end as my fender tag does have the code for the super track pack so update to follow.

Danny, I know you have worse problems right now, but check that white paper tag wrapped around the left side of the axle. When you get time.

the casting at the upper right side (numbers upside down) read c34155, i guess that is the casting for a 9+3/4" dana. at the bottom under that number there is a # 60 too,i am guessing that is a code fro dana 60 rear end. i do have the paper sticker wrapped around the oppisite side,it is hard to read the first few nimbers as they are a bit faded and one is being blocked by a brake line but here is what i think it reads- 8482081 or 3462081,the last 4 numbers are easy to read though and it does look like the 081 is for super track pack/4:10 gear,as that is what my car came with according to my fender tag code a34, daves code photo also confirms that it does match up.

Yes, Danny it's correct!
