8.5 rear end

All the info I shared is what my mechanic told me. It has a bent axle and needs new rear shoes. He was wondering what type of car it came out of. The pumpkin un-bolts from the drive shaft side which lends me to think it came from a ford. 8.5 inch posi traction (may be the incorrect nomenclature depending on the brand).

We would be glad to help but we have no way to know what rearend you are working on with out some pictures. You could even have an AMC rearend but we have no way of knowing because lack of information. You and mechanic can see it but we can't so if you want help post some pictures.
