I know the frames and motor mounts are different but thought I would ask since it is a while before I can set up the truck for a hotchkiss (open) axle and driveline.  | | | | | Joined: Jan 2001 Posts: 5,337 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Jan 2001 Posts: 5,337 | The only difference in the springs is where the spring center bolt is located. It is back about 2" from 1954 and earlier to match the open drive style perch.
