Can't seem to find the right part?
The part names used by salvage yard interchange may be different than what the shop manuals or your buddies call parts. For example, you might want a rear differential for a Mustang. If your Mustang has independent rear suspension, then the part is called a "carrier assembly" by the interchange. If your Mustang has a solid axle then it is called an "axle assembly." Below are some common parts that may have different names than you are used to.
Hogshead, Differential, Pumpkin, 3rd Member



All 3 of these are carrier assemblies. The first 2 are out of cars and the last one is the front on a 4wd pickup truck. Some cars like a AWD Charger have both a front and a rear. However, both are found as a part name "Carrier
