| | THANKS!
For helping keep this great
old truck web site
on the Internet for over 30 years! and not clogged down with Ads! Again, thanks! | | | | Joined: Apr 2004 Posts: 543 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Apr 2004 Posts: 543 | Anyone know of a 5- or 6-lug axle that'll bolt up in place of a '41-'46 1/2-ton rear axle??? I found a 235 close by, with tranny, from a '59, so I know the enclosed driveline will go away. I've heard a S-10 rear is the same width. Anyone know for sure what will be the same, in terms of width???

I have a hard copy of it at the house, but its listed somewhere here on the board. A lot of people use the 70's Blazer with 6 lugs. The S-10's have 5 lug wheels and are about the right width as well. There are also some Camero rears that will work. Hopefully somebody will come up with a link. PS. I will be in OK City the night of the 16th on our way to Branson. I will give you a call. My wife was wanting to go see the brickyard and I wanted to see the Bass Pro shop if there's time.
