Information and links to driveline and differential components.
The "Third Generation Camaros" require mount points on the differential for the torque arm, trailing arm links, spring pads, panhard rod and shocks. Many aftermarket options exist with all of the appropriate mount points.
The most common GM unit for the 1982 to 1992 Camaro is the Saginaw style 10 bolt Chevy differential.
1982 to 1984: 7.5 inch ring gear, 26 spline axle
1985 to 1989: 7.625 inch ring gear, 26 spline axle
1990 to 1992: 7.625 inch ring gear, 28 spline axle
PN 26010268 (drum brakes)
PN 26028692 (disk brakes)
The "Third Generation Camaros" were available with both rear drum brakes and
rear disk brakes. The hand brake is slightly different for each. The throw (distance of pull) is greater for the disk brake. This was achieved by utilizing a different hole position where the end of the cable connects.
Any change from a drum brake system to a disk brake system will require a
change to a disk brake based master cylinder and proportioning valve as well
as the aforementioned handbrake lever.
