Unsure what the problem is after dozens of hours, am thinking of replacing the whole rear end. It's a '51 half-ton with a 235. Is there an easy fit for a later unit? I have a 4-speed gearbox in the truck. | | | | | Joined: Oct 2003 Posts: 5,152 Cruising in the Passing Lane | | Cruising in the Passing Lane Joined: Oct 2003 Posts: 5,152 | Easiest swap would be to another '48 to '54 stock rear. Otherwise you are looking at an open drive rear and a little searching here will give you all the options.
