Tango Shop Shark T Joined: Mar 2011 Posts: 667 Texas	I went with a Dana 80 HD out of a '98 Chevy 3500 for my '46 1-1/2 ton School bus. Had to relocate the spring perches about 7/8" outboard but had tons of gearing options plus it came with disk brakes. Good fit overall with no issues. 1946 1.5-Ton Chevy Shorty Bus In the Stovebolt Gallery Tango's 1946 Chevy "Skoolie" Project All my best --- Tango
