Aussie Truck I've been having an email dialog with a vendor over motor parts that leaves me a little frustrated. He keeps responding to my queries but the responses almost scream that he didn't really read the question.
I'll be interested in what Chevs of the 40's tells you, but if they say it will work, I'd suggest either sending them a photo of the wheel and hub or the spindle dimensions and asking if they are sure.
I have a
GM 14-bolt under my 1-ton also, and it was a simple bolt-in operation. However I bought a '49 1-ton for parts and the 14-bolt was already installed under it.
14-bolt rears came in exactly two widths. I think 63 inches and 67 inches WMS to WMS. You probably want a 63 inch though its not hard to convert one to the other.
There is lots of good 14-bolt info
here.
