A 4.56 posi would have been an RPO order. What makes you think it's anything COPO?

The 4.56 and 4.88 gears were ordered with RPO 84 linked to COPO 9511

So if I ordered any '69 Camaro with a 4.56 or 4.88 geared diff I would have to order a COPO option?

Is that also true for a 1969 Chevelle? Was there a special Copo for 4:56 gears?

Any L78 Chime is a good Chime.

My 05C 4:88 had a Feb date code.

Bob,
Thanks for clearing this up.

Yes, to get a 4.56 or 4.88 in a Camaro, it was a COPO order.

Comparing it to other models / years isn't really a valid comparison since the ordering method changed. The data on other 69's says this axle date was *way* off - I've always been surprised by how close the dates are on some unusual components in 69.

Is this true for a 1968 ordered car??? For a 4.56/4.88 rear axle it had to be a COPO order???
Or only a 1969 ordered car??

Thanks in advance
