No higher rear ratios than 3.55 for light trucks are available, get a Brownie or modern axle(single speed only) from the P-30 you get the spindles from, get power steering box there too.
I raised the seat 1.5" on my '54 which helped with legroom.
All your answers are here if one reads back through old posts, lock on refrigerator door.
