So what do I call my rear end, besides big old rear end!!
I was at the engine builders to day checking up on the progress of my latest 216 head acquisition. The subject of rear end ratios came up in regards to keeping the babbit pounder running a little longer and I told him that the 4.56 was about the only choice I had for a 1950, 3604. Him being the Off-the-Road, 4x4 wheeler, truck pullin’ type, asked me what model rear end the truck had in it. Standing there dumb founded all I could come up with was, oh, it’s a GM! Upon which, he turned and went back into the office and shut the door in the certified dummies face.
So what make and model is the stock rear end in a 1950, 3604 trucks other than a GM?
