I have just purchased a low mileage, non-raced/dragged '87 GN. Everything checked out except for the rear end. The code on the pass side front facing axle tube is "2TJ G 329". The RPO code sticker on the trunk listed code G80 limited slip diff.
I looked up axle codes. Code "2TJ" is for a '86 GN however I cannot confirm what the "J" stands for.
I am pretty sure my '87 was bulit early on in the production run .
My questions:
Is "2TJ" an '86 GN axle?
.
Since an early production run would the factory use leftover '86 axle tube on a early '87?
What does the letter "J" stand for in the axle code?
PS I plan on pulling the cover off the rear end to confirm gear ratio and whether limited slip.
Thanks
Rick
