I picked up a rear end for my '51 from what I thought was a 67 Chevy half ton. Well, it's one of the rare rear ends that is a Dana 44 with 3.54 gears and is a posi-trac. That all works out great, but the drums are shot and they don't make them anymore. So I figured why not, we'll just swap it over to disc. But I cant use the kits for the trucks since it has a Ford 9" Big Axle flange pattern. And on top of that I want to keep the 6x5'5" bolt pattern since I've already converted the front to 6 Lug Disc. I found a forum thread where someone machined down a Wagoneer Drum to make it work, but I don't like the idea of having to get custom drums if I ever need them. Has anybody ran into this or have any suggestions? I'd prefer to have bolt on since I don't have access to a welder and can't weld myself. Thanks for any help on advance
