1/2 tons? As above.
3600 and above have open drive-lines in 1954 and 1955-1st.

The springs on your truck have the mounting hole too far forward. | | | | | Joined: Jan 2002 Posts: 2,254 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Jan 2002 Posts: 2,254 | I need to ask a friend about the rear out of a 55.1 GMC 1/2 ton. Maybe he will have it for sale.
