Re: Replacing '53 chev torque tube with '55-'64 3rd member
I believe that your rear will twist on you at the pivot point. They put them in there to pivot when the truck hits a bump, since the torque tube is hard and doesn't have any give to it. You will have to either welt the pivot point up solid or replace the whole axle with an open drive shaft kind.
