They all interchange into the housings.
But the pettys and the oilers have different ratios.
Also the V6 has a heavier carrier with more gusseting and bigger pinion bearings.

they all have 8inch crown wheel if u look on the chassis tag there will be a trans axel code that will be something like
G144
the letter is the size of the crown whell
the next 2 numbers are the ratio
the last number is the number of pins and lsd or open
