NO......not even close on both rears. Only 3rd & 4th gen rear axle assemblies will work or if you or if have extra $1200 to $2400 for a 9" or 12 bolt made for your car.

Thats a rip... $300 for just the carrier assembly?
Anyways, what you have under your camaro is a GM 7.5" 10 bolt. There is also an 8.5" 10 bolt, so don't get them confused.

Up to late 89 all F-body cars with 10-bolt 7.5/625 dia gears had 26 spline axle shafts. Buying used gears sets is a money lossing situation. You are not going to be swapping gears in your present rear, due to the carrier & axle shafts for starters.
Also you need to do a lot more research concernning rear gear changes besides some of the mis-info in the short replies here.

Well, my bad about the axles. I was thinking 27 spline because that gets thrown around quite a bit on JF.
10 bolts are a dime a dozen. It's not worth trying to swap carriers, gears, and axles. Find a used 10 bolt LSD, or even preferably a 9 bolt borg warner from an F body with disc brakes. Both will bolt in with no modification, except brake lines and proportioning valve.
