[oletrucks] installing a rear end in a 50 3100

[RobXR250@aol.com]

I recently purchased a 50 3100. since the cost of getting new gears for the 
rear end is $400 I'd rather just buy a new rear end from a salvage yard. i 
was wondering if anyone has found a rear end that is easy to install with 
minimal fabrication. Also im not sure if i'll be keeping the 216 and colum 3 
spd so if anyone knows of a engine/tranny set up that isn't bad, let me know.
