Apparently one of mine is bent... (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

I need a driver's side 9-bolt axle.

Or a 3rd gen width 10-bolt... I have a 28-spline 3-series posi for a 10-bolt that I've had one a shelf for the day I blow up the 9-bolt because I promised myself I wouldn't put any more money into it... But getting the 9-bolt fixed is Plan A.

Im in middle Georgia.

I had a guy get in touch with me on thirdgen.org a few hours after I posted this, and he got it shipped out today. He says it needs a new bearing, so I've got to see how that plays out before I know if everything is kosher. But it's good to know there's a plan B here. If I still need one I will let you guys know later this week. Thanks!

Blaine it's an 89 9-bolt... I think it was from an 89 GTA? Thats what I was told anyway. I don't need or care about ARP studs. Would be nice, but I just want to get something on the car that isnt bent.

Im having a bear of a time trying to get this axle to work... it's just not going into the carrier at all, even though the old axle slides right in no problem. I know all 9 bolts are 28 spline so Im really confused. But I've given up on it working at this point. Nothing I try makes it fit.

So I need an axle again.

Yet another change of plans....

This has been a pretty frustrating turn of events. I was about to just spend $400 on axles from Moser, so I decided to check my cones for the first time since the 3.70's went in, and they're bottomed out in the case on the driver's side, and close to done on the other side. No way Im investing money in that axle when the posi is toast and there's not really a good way to fix it that will last.

So Im going look for a third gen 10-bolt. If you, by any chance, have a third gen 10-bolt with 28-spline axles and 89-92 rear disc brake backing plates.... Im interested.

Thanks guys.
