Easy Rear End Swap ??
Is there such a thing.
My stepside is screaming at 6OMPH. I'd like some better highway gears.Like at least a 3.00 or even 2.75's. I know I know with my 6 popper it will be gutless,its gutless now. LOL. Since future plans call for a V-8 this could be the first step. Is there a car ? or truck rearend assembly that would fit ? Something that would have highway gears or parts could be had cheaply ?(Used ?) Same side to side width ,same 5 lug wheel pattern ? Am I dreaming ? I would have the rear end installed on top of the springs for the lowering factor.Are flip kits nessesary or can a good welder make it work from the parts already on the rear axle ? By flipping the axle would I need a C-notch ? Again could a good welder make one up ? Would I need shorter shocks ? Any thoughts or ideas welcomed . ![]()
