Can anyone help me ID what year this casting number is please 795082. It is a 3.55 WH not sure what year it is. I need to buy new axles and bearings for it.

Thanks, John

Hi John
You have a 1969 A body nodular 4 pinion rear end. Casting should be 9795084, sometimes a digit is missing. It should have a large cast "N" on top of the casting near the yoke.
1970 nodular rear end should be 9799202

9795082 sounds like a 3.55 std rear (non-locking), not a 4 pinion model

Thank you.

It does have N6 stamped on it, and what looks like K268 ?

Thanks for your replies.

Does that mean it is an 8.2?

Where is the best place to buy axles from please, and what should I expect to pay for them?

gray iron '69 8.2 Pontiac with sealed axle bearings, RW507CR.
Axle length is same from mid '66 through '69.
Moser Engineering should have specs on file.
if I was in New Zealand, might try sourcing some nice used axles through networking with other enthusiasts your way. New from the states are going to be very expensive.
BTW, Typw "0" '67-69 Oldsmobile A body 28 spline axles will also work. same length, same pitch splines, same axle bearing.

Thanks for the information, much appreciated.

I have tried lots of places down here but with no luck.
