vinsanity New Guy V Joined: Apr 2007 Posts: 1 Gladstone, Mo	Originally Posted by tarheel I'm thinking about this swap for my 51, but want to use the original wheels. Will the axles from the 51 work with the 55 third member? I am also interested in an answer to this question...I have a 53 and would like to convert my rear to open drive and would like to keep my original 16" rims. Anybody know?
