Ryan,
You only need the Differential which goes inside the pumpkin and rear
axle. As Derf said you want one that has 10/39 on the top of the
differential case but check yours first to see which you have now! There
were at least 3 available. Early cars were 4.22 to 1, then there is 3.9 to
1 and the shorter 4.22 to 1. The 4.22 is great for autocross - the taller
geared 3.77 for highway use. As was noted, the taller gears are getting
hard to find and usually demand a suitable hunk of cash.
If you find a 3.9 or 3.77 that's inside a rear axle case and the seller
won't part it out, buy the whole thing. You'll need help picking it up!!
DAMHIK....
Cheers!
Jim
