9.5" Full Floater?

[JanneB]

I have a 1985 LIGHT DUTY TRUCK C-K-G-P SERIES SERVICE MANUAL .
I have had it for years but today I took a closer look at the rear axle section.

There is:
Chevrolet 8-1/2" and 9-1/2" Ring Gear
Chevrolet 9-1/2" Ring Gear - Full Floating ?????
Chevrolet 10-1/2 Ring Gear
Dana 10-1/2" Ring Gear
Dana 9-3/4" Ring Gear
Rockwell 12" Ring Gear

There are exploded view pictures of all above.

The picture of the 9-1/2" Full Floater shows a differential identical to the 9-1/2" Semi Floater,
but the hubs are fully floating.

Have you ever seen an axle like this?

I'd say a miss print, or maybe an import axle seeing your in Finland.

I think miss print . that's a dana 70 rear from pickups with drw and pickup box with the ext fenders to cover the tires .

I've never seen a 9.5" full floater. The other funny part is all three diagrams show the same 14 bolt cover...the big full float version. The SF 14 cover is a big oval cover like a 10 bolt cover but with more bolt holes.

I'd bet it's a non U.S. axle. When I worked in Toyota parts we would occaisionally see odd stuff that we couldn't get from other countries (mostly South America calls).

No no, I am sure they are out there, under the same trucks that have the 12-bolt front...

Pure gold.
