Re: Rear axle offset question
I don’t think that’s the whole deal, like I said, a lot of the 3/4 ton trucks came with the HO52 which is basically the same setup as the HO72 from your 1 ton. The reason that the yoke is offset is because of the design of the removable 3rd member from that design of axle. In order for the third member to be removed the ring gear has to be able to clear the housing when coming out. The axles without a removable third member don’t have to deal with this so the ring gear can be placed more centered in the housing if that makes sense.
