- How to Rebuild the 10- and 12- Bolt Axles
Millions of Chevy 10- and 12-bolt axles were installed on GM vehicles. In addition, the Chevy 10- and 12-bolts are the high-performance and limited-slip differentials of choice for GM muscle cars. These high-performance differentials were installed on Camaros, Chevelles, Corvettes, and many other GM muscle cars from 1964 to 1972, as well as many trucks.
The Chevy 10-bolts with 8.5-inch ring gears are exceptional high-performance rear differentials and capably handle high-horsepower engines. Many owners 'need to rebuild high-mileage, worn-out, or damaged axle assemblies in their favorite vehicle. Some may find a used axle assembly, rebuild it, and install it in a vehicle for a high-performance upgrade while others may fit an aftermarket Chevy 12-bolt differential to a vehicle for racing and high-performance use. This book serves all these owners.
In this step-by-step guide, author Jefferson Bryant explains and shows how to disassemble, identify, inspect, select parts for, and reassemble the axle assembly.
Whether your vehicle is for high-performance street, off-road, street/strip, or racing, the Chevy 10- and 12-bolt axle assemblies are a top choice for GM and non-GM muscle cars and trucks. This is the only book dedicated to rebuilding, setting up, and tuning these axle assemblies for long service life and maximum performance.
Jefferson Bryant became mesmerized with cars at the age of six when he first saw a 1978 Pontiac Firebird. Since then, he has been hooked. He has contributed articles to Hot Rod, Car Craft, and Rod and Custom. He is also a veteran book author; having written How to Build Max-Performance Buick Engines and How to Design and Install In-Car Entertainment Systems.
