my 87 chevy project

ohhh it's a 6 lug 12 bolt.

We tried finding one around here, perfect ratio for us too lol 4.10 or bigger. I think all you need is 5 lug axles and you're set. My old man ended up settling for some 3.90 gears to put in his 10 bolt. he tried to find a rear end around here and didn't have much luck. We did have a 12 bolt 5 lug with 4.11's in it, it got scrapped with another truck. Now we wished we had it LOL.

Do me a favor though man, get lots of pics and details when making this frame a 2wd one. I may be doing the same thing soon. I'm actually trying to find a cab and frame to build my own truck and the frame I get may be 4x4.

I'd also try and save the leaf spring hangers and stuff other ppl may be looking for them or need them.
