I wanted to post these pictures for you all to have a gander at, to put a picture with what I am talking about. Keep in mind, I am in the restoration process, so my frame/truck look ruff. . .hey, I just started the project in October!!!!!

Here is my old 3-speed:

Here is my drive line with transmission detached:

Here is looking down the back-end of my transmission, notice the female end I have been speaking about:

I know some people were calling me regarding the setup I had going on.

As you can see, I do indeed have a longbed, and the extra ball-type joint as seen on my driveline is proof of that.

Rob, here is my birth-plate (who knows why my mom painted this truck purple back in the 70's. . .boggles me):

I have been told I can take the u-joint and female end off of my 3-speed to adapt the incoming 4-speed up, no problem. That, and the spider gear with the speedo connection.

Well, thoughts?

ps, thanks for the phone call Valentine, based on the pictures, what do you think?

THANK YOU all very much,
