It takes a lot of work to test, document, and report back on these swapping ideas.

Grigg and Shade Tree. Understood. Just to clarify, I meant no offense to anyone and the tips and research are VERY appreciated. I have caused a few tangents myself. I just get confused easily. People will always ask about their specific situation as will I.

Like this... LOL.

If I can find a way to swap my 1953 3800's HO72 5.14's for 4.10's from an HO53 AND put newer brakes on the HO72 while keeping my duals AND put disc brakes on the stock front axle AND have the front and rear bolt patterns match AND fit a modern 1 piece wheel... I'll be happy. LOL LOL Sounds ridiculous, but that is the real situation. My head hurts.
