My son and I have been re-building his '56 Chevy pick-up for almost three
years. During the re-build process we replaced the engine and transmission
with a Chevy 305ci and turbo transmission. We now realize that the gear
ratio of the rear-end is much to low to allow normal road speeds. I have
found gears and gear kit that will fit into the existing rear-end but they
are much too expensive for our budget.
We are thinking that maybe we should change-out the rear-end completely with
another rear end. Do you know what would swap-out fairly easily with our
truck, what would align fairly well with the existing leaf spring saddles
and
provide a pretty good gear ratio?
Is there anything out there that would swap that has a six bolt wheel lug
pattern or do we have to change out to a five bolt/lug wheel pattern?
If must go with the five bolt wheel pattern how difficult is it to change
out
the front spindles and where might we find a five bolt front spindle that
would fit.
I know we have asked a lot. We really appreciate any help you can provide.
Thanks a lot!
