I've got a '68 GMC 3/4 ton. It'g got a Dana60 w/ 4:56 gears. Need a different gear ratio & it (to me) sounds easier to just swap out rear ends rather than re-gear the Dana. Since it's a leafspring truck it should be fairly easy to find a 14 bolt rear. What are my options for a direct/semi-direct swap?
