Default What is the Stock 10 really

the stock 10 bolt my mechanic said is just an ordinary S10 truck rearend. AKa not supportive of stock power. i got my car recently, blew rear end and had rebuilt, almost 2 weeks later there it goes again. i want to buy a 9 inch but idont have the money right now. i am borrowing money just to get my car out and about again. Here are the breaking news pics i guess



Notice the spider gears have teath missing


Notice also how the pin made the round hole (circle) in the housing stretched to a oval shape with rough edges

Heres HotRod magazines comments on this rear the year they started putting them in f-bodies. Hard to read, but it originally came from the vega.

It's no big secret that the 10 bolt is not really up to par for handling power.
