I don't think original rear on my truck was supposed to be Dana. Am I wrong, is he wrong? According to Jim Carters I can swap my pumpkin from a 67-72 C20 but they are not as clear about the 65 as the thought was this years might not have 4.1 gears.
I can get this 65 pumpkin for $50.00 but shipping will cost plenty so I am hopeful some of you guys can help.
thanks

The stock cover is round, perfectly circular. The dana covers are not round, more squarish, or diamond shaped. | | |

There is enough good in the worst of us and enough bad in the best of us that it does not behoove any of us to criticize the rest of us.
