I found a 1949 Chevy one ton on ebay and will be picking it up shortly, but I wanted to find out a little info about it first. It took FOREVER to find the good sites, including this one, that had a good source of info. So I am glad to be here. I will be posting up info and images of the rig when i get it.

That being said, thanks to this site I have come to find out that it is NOT a 1-ton... it's a 1.5. I knew the images seemed a bit out of scale to be a light duty.

So that brings me to a bit of info I am still seeking. Short of completely replacing the rear axle (which is what I expect) is there any way to drop the rear end gear ratio.
