Re: 69 Z28 Rear Axle
<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: enio45</div><div class="ubbcode-body">OK, from what i have been able to check out so far - the part number for the axle is 3969349 - so the axle would have a cast number of 9349 like the one im looking at. The other side does not have any casting info - so i am assuming its been replaced with a generic brand.
Any idea what the casting letters LS mean? </div></div>
The LS means "left Side" and should only be used on the left side unless you live below the Equator. In that case you will need to move it to the right side or your gas mileage will severely drop. It's just like the direction water swirls in a toilet. It changes depending weather you are above or below the Equator because of the magnetic pull of the North and south poles. If you have the axle on the wrong side it will be just like trying to swim against the swirl in that toilet. Go with the flow. Ta Daaaa..
