Thanks. this weekend I came across a axle, driveshaft, and transmission from a 1958 1/2 ton for sale. I'm looking to find a replacement for my 1953 3100 which has the torque tube. Ghostrider mentions a pumpkin swap for years 55-62. Does that mean its a direct bolt in replacement and the spring pads won't have to be relocated? The only problem is that its a 3:91 which is a slight improvement over the 4:10 I currently have. If I bolt a saginaw 4speed to this, will I be able to cruise at 65 mph or will I need to go with something in the 3:55 range
