I just picked up a really clean, low-mileage 85 GT, which finally scratched a 5.0 itch that I've had for about 25 years . From research I've done, I thought all 85s came with 7.5" rear ends. Following is the tag on mine:
First line: 203f, second line: 3 L (I think. I couldn't read this portion given lighting, but was feeling with my finger tip and could feel the L and something that could pass for a 3 next to it) 08 A88 6B13.
From a page I found on this site, it appears that it is an 8.8" with 3.08 trac loc manufactured Feb. 13, 1986. Is this correct? If 86 manufacture date, I assume someone must of replaced the original. Does this sound correct or am I wrong regarding my decoding?
Thank you.
