63 Avanti rear end tag

[long1776]

Still waiting for my FSM so I've to consult with you.
The tag reads "45B". What ratio would that be?

Another thing, I'm member of several forums, but when it comes to knowledge and answers, this is the top!

I think 45b relates to the clutch pack/bands (whatever they are ) not the ratio.
There should be another tag there with the ratio on it.
If not you may have to pull the back off the diff and on the crown wheel there will be 2 numbers. Divide one from the other and you will have your ratio.

"45B" has to do with the clutch packs in the diff, which means that it's a limited slip ("Twin Traction") look for a separate tag for the ratio, if there is a 45x tag there should also be another one (hidden under the grime somewhere)

The Ratio tag should look like this:





** I have these tags NOS and recently zinc-plated (the originals were surface-rusty)for sale $6.50 shipped

I do NOT have any 3.73, and only (1-2) 3.31 tags.
