I have heard the 12 bolts in cars called a Saginaw, but thats a different critter

 

[k5redneck]

could have been swaped in and what kind on car did it come out of?

It is possible that GMs corporate axle operation (what is now spun off as American Axle and Manufacturing) was at one point part of the Saginaw Division of GM. I am not really sure, but it could easily be true.

I heard a 12bolt 5 lug called that, under a 2x4 truck....but I don't know why or if the name is correct. /forums/images/graemlins/dunno.gif
