Re: BX axle code?
I believe there is a known COPO 4.56 axle for a 1969 Camaro that has heat treated 4.56 gears and a COPO posi unit.

Re: BX axle code?
Its always been my understanding that in 69 a 4;56 or 4;88 could have been either dealer installed or COPO ordered.If the axle tubes are stamped BWor QG, or for the 4;88 gears BX or QH, that is a definate indication they were COPO ordered.

A 4.56 gear in a 69 Z would be normal gears.

Re: BX axle code?
Yes and the car has legit paperwork. It is a white 427 COPO car I saw it at Super Chevy Atlanta 10 years ago or so.

Re: BX axle code?
I'm happy to hear that the rear was swapped at the dealer and the dealer ended up eating it. I'm a loooooooooong time GM dealer employee, and I tell people stuff like this happened and they tell me I am Full of S##T!!! I try to tell them it happened, I know, because I was there.
I know NOTHING about the car in this thread, but I had to throw in my 2cents about the dealership story! HA!!!

I believe that there was a burnished brown original COPO 4.56 axle car built. .
