Does anybody know if a stock 1966 Impala rear end will fit a 53’ 3100?
Only info I can locate was the track width which stated 62.5”

Thank you

What is a track width?

Which rear end had 62.5" track width?

That 1953 information (and, maybe that 1966 information) you are looking for is probably in a Specifications Manual (which are probably available online).
