Question
hi i need to know what carrier will fit my 7.5 rearend im looking for a limted slip will a camaro or s10 fit from what years please i hope you can help me   thanks

Answer
    Most GM rear-wheel-drive cars built in the late seventies through the early nineties use the 7.5 in all V6&4 cylinder cars,S10 Blazers and S10 pickups.  The Camaro case is very much different because of the attaching hardware for the torque arm, but the carriers are all the same.  Just make sure that your old rear IS a 7.5.  If you want to you could replace the entire rear end with the 8.5 out of a V8 Monte Carlo or Malibu.  This would give you access to many ratios that aren't a good idea with the smaller rear.
