Well everyone my project is about to change and I need some quick info:
My 71 GMC measures in at 22 ft long the new one I am looking at is a 67 SWB what is the true measurement of length on it my garage is only 17.5 ft long and if I can fit her in my wife might forgive me. She accepts Orange being outside only because it was her granfathers.
My 71 has a posi 3.73 12 bolt in it is it possible to just switch the whole gear set out on a non-posi truck, or will I have to switch out the whole rear end and more since it will be going from a GMC to a Chevy.
Lastly how big of a nightmare will it be to take the front end off the GMC this would switch it from 6 lug drum to 5 lug disks. If I do this I realize I will have to switch the whole rear end to make her all 5 lug.
Any help is appreciated this was one of those spur of the moment changes I had not planned for that I am sure will cost more $$$ to the project but what ya going to do
