This document is a technical reference chart showing axle housing end / brake flange dimensions for eleven common rear axle types used in domestic vehicles. Each pattern is drawn as a face-on outline of the flange with its center bore and bolt holes, annotated with key measurements in inches. Patterns covered include: Small Ford (2.835 center bore, 3.562 bolt spacing), Big Ford (3.150 bore, 3.562 spacing), Big Ford New Style (3.150 bore, 2.780), 8.8" Ford (3.410 with 2.840 tubing O.D.), Chevy Special (3.072 x 2.404, 3.150 bore), 8-3/4 and 9-3/4 Mopar / Dana 60 (2.875 bore), Olds/Pontiac (3.150 bore, 3.500 x 2.500), Mark Williams (3.150 bore, 2.000), 12 Bolt Chevy (3.072 x 2.404, tubing O.D. 2.725), and 12 Bolt Late 1993-2002 Camaro (tubing O.D. 2.840). A final side-view drawing labeled 'Axle Flange Cross-Section' illustrates how the flange offset is measured. A reader can use this chart to identify an unknown rear axle by measuring its flange bolt pattern, center bore diameter, and axle tube outside diameter, or to select correct brake brackets and aftermarket housing ends when swapping axles or brakes.
