Door Code info.

[FastGallopingPonies]

Anyone have some stuff to contribute? I know a guy on CVN had the Axle codes which I'm currently trying to find. It'd be something good to sticky in the Tech section/Archives.

in the mean time could someone tell me what the axle codes Y and Z are? My Diff. tag is gone on both cars.

I looked on my door tag under "AX" and all it had was an 8 but no letters. so I assume it's a 2.73 open?

[FastGallopingPonies]

bah it was goodsamaritan couldn't remeber who had 'em. thanks Gadget!

[marquisman]

if anyone has an 81, i can break down the VIN and door sticker no prob, not sure if they change the numbers passed 84.

[Tiggie]

I got the 82 stuff and some 88 stuff. I'll see if I can get some of it together later today.

Are you thinking about a decoding section for the tech section?

[mrltd]

The axle codes are posted everywhere... a quick search finds 'em.

They are the second post in the suspension/drivetrain FAQ in the suspension forum...

150 hp + 3,800# + AOD + 2.73's = DOG!

Don't waste your time with 3.27s.. Go at least 3.55....

[fordktpjoe]

It's my DD, you don't think 3.55's will be too low? I want 3.55's but figured they'd be a little hard on fuel mileage..I was hoping someone could talk me into them!

BTW, like the AR in yer sig.... got 3 myself! Where'd ya get that picatinny forearm?

[GoodSamaritan]

Did someone mention my name?

[FastGallopingPonies]

I'm thinking about going with 3:73's. Whos got them? hows your mileage? My car is primarily a in city car and doesn't see the highway for extended periods of time.

what's a city?
i get 18 mpg stop and go, and 21-22 highway with teh 3.73's and a modified ho
