The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network - View Single Post - this rear axle stuff is confusing, but I have to go posi

I have all these tools and did the procedure quite some time ago. I think I set it dang near perfect...but...i guess I'll just have to wait and find that out the hard way.

I suppose I should have started a new thread on this but I was really asking about what 5 lug rear axles to match up with this stuff. I realize I need 5 lug if I want any sort of options with wheel style. I want to make sure I get the right stuff, and, since I have the stock axles in there now, I'm guessing I just need to get a stock axle swap. I can measure everything when I get the axles out. Excited to see the first bit's of paint hit the body. Re-motivated now I guess you could say!
