The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area Engine Shop 1946 Chevrolet 3/4 ton truck

Hi. Your rearend should be an Eaton HO52 or Eaton HO72. The carrier with the ring and pinion setup interchange directly with a 1967-72 Chevy or GMC 3/4-Ton truck. The highest stock gear ratio is 4.10. I made the swap on my '49 Chevy 3/4-Ton and it worked out great. You should be able to find a rearend carrier with 4.10's by surfing 67-72chevytrucks.com.

Good Luck!
