Thanks Jerry. I'll give these some consideration. I have found a new set of side gears for my GM 55T center section. As a result, I'm now leaning back toward using that 55 1/2 ton differential in my OE 1942 axle. Time will tell as I completely disassemble the center section.

Thanks again, and Happy New Year.
