stamped numbers on rear axle

[Sam (Bones)]

I see people always asking where the numbers are at, was playing with the new camera and snapped this one, and you can see where the numbers are at on the tube (outlined in blue)

Thanks Sam. Sometimes they show pictures, but it's always hard to get a reference as to exactly where it is on the axle tube. And when they're got 40 years of road grime, they can get a little harder to see.

Sam can I steal that picture for the tech section? Which Monte is that?

[Sam (Bones)]

of course you can Ian, if there is other shots you want, let me know, it's up on jack stands and easy access right now

[Sam (Bones)]

Looking good from what we can see. Is this one going to be original or a custom build.

[Sam (Bones)]

it's a numbers matching, engine, trans, axle, bench seat 4 speed, I don't dare mess with this one

[Monte7071]

Wow that would be a cool car to have.

What do those particular numbers tell you? Did they stamp the gear ratio and diff in that code?
