1967 Camaro radius rod research
« on: January 23, 2010, 03:04:17 PM »
I just updated the radius rod article, http://www.camaros.org/radiusrod.shtml, with new pics (thanks Ron!) and new information. But we really don't have a lot of clarity in the data, especially for the first cars that used radius rods.
We are looking for more information from any SS, Z, or L30/M20 that was made Dec 66 or later. Especially SS350 cars made in December or January and L30/M20 cars made in December thru March.

You can email the information below to either me or Daniel (CamaroDan@juno.com) or to post it on this thread.
The information that we're looking for is:
1) Build date
2) Model (SS350, L35, L78, Z28, or L30/M20)
3) Does your car have a radius rod? If so, round or rectangular?
4) If not, does it have either the body bracket or the axle bracket?
5) VIN (Feel free to email if you don't want to post it. We need to the VIN to be able to sort and reference the data. It will not be published or released in any form.)

Helpful extra credit (esp for the early SS350 and L30/M20 cars). :)
6) Axle date (e.g. QJ0421G1). See http://www.camaros.org/drivetrain.shtml#axle for the location.
7) Do you have any documentation for the car?

Thanks for the help!!

The report still could use a better pic of the round bar installed in a car (same angle as the rectangular bar would be great) and some pics of the axle brackets (without a rod installed).
If anyone has a dealer-added bracket/rod, that might be a good pic too. Not sure if pics would show the differences though.
Thanks!

Buddy,
Do you still have the maroon BB?

Philip,
They didn't install a rod on 10 bolt axles and the L30/M20 didn't get a 12 bolt until a couple of months after your car. Thanks!

Wes,
Yup, both brackets were there, but no rod.

David,
Thanks for the axle bracket pics!

Buddy,
You sent in the info 10 years ago, but we don't have any axle or rod info. I'll send you an email.

I am trying to verify if this is the original differential.  I snapped some quick pictures and tried to get some numbers

Build Date: 01C
SS350
No radius rod since I have had it
I will PM you my VIN
I have the POP only.  Havent found a build sheet (have not looked too hard yet).  
QL01116 (Q looks like an O)

Build date- 2B 3L/4P L142305 has the bracket, no rod, no axle bracket. But my mystery is a 10 bolt rear! Could this original? The date lines up perfectly for the car
