I love my wheels and would like to stay with 6 lug but I am not sure what rear ends are out there in six lug that will fit when I get ready to open up the drive line. I dont want the added cost of getting new wheels. Anyone have any ideas?

(about 62" plus or minus) The 12 bolt truck rears from about '63 and up will have the best gear ratio selections with aftermarket ring and pinions readily available.
Cutting and welding will be required for fit up into your '52. | | |
