Will a 1975 Monte Carlo 10 bolt fit a 72 GTO
I have been looking for a 10 bolt 8.5 rear end as I'm not sure how long my 8.2 BOP axle will last and I dont think it makes sense to put money into it. My friend has a 1975 Monte Carlo rear end, will it fit my 1972 GTO?

No, the '73-77 A body r/e housing has a wider spread between the two upper control arm mounts. The overall width of the '73-77 A -body rear also near an inch wider than your LATE PONTIAC 8.2 10 bolt.
Know these rears very well, have built up near 2 dozen '73-77 A-body rears & over 350 71-72 8.5 A-body rears.

Oldsmobile 'O' type rearend
12-bolts in the cover but 10-bolt guts.
Decent rear-ends but no stronger than a normal 10-bolt. |

And remember the Yoke from a 65-70 Big Car fits the Chevy 12-Bolt, so you can enjoy the Pontiac size U-Joint.
