I am putting a V-8 and 700R in my '46 1/2 ton. Is there any way to convert the rear end to an open drive? Also curious if the rear end would hold up to the extra torque. I only plan on driving it around town, so I'm not worried about gas milage or extra wear on drivetrain. Is this possible, or should I go with my original plan of swapping a newer rearend?
