Axle.... same for all models? 200

posted by  someone claiming to be Zack on  Fri Feb 1 10:07 CST 2002 [RELATED]

I have started looking into which parts need to be replaced on the 83' 242 Ti that I wrecked in November, one of which is the right rear axle. It was bent from the impact, and the caliper was broken, and wheel was ruined. I would like to know if there are any differences in the axles of the 200's series, and would it be possible for me to grab one from a wrecking yard that wasn't a turbo model?

Letme tell ya, it sucks to have it up on jackstands in the side yard for several months. I've been driving my mom's 81' 244 DL, and its not nearly as nice to drive.

Also, what would be some ballpark prices for an axle, and does the gear ratio matter? Mine is a 3.73.

Thanks for your help, and i'll be back on here asking more questions when I start replacing the front control arm and related parts,

Zack
