Re: Gear swap Axle troubles

That is one that I would never have thought of but you can bet it saved a lot of tooling at the factory the axles were made at.

I was just thinking that most of us had thought you were doing the third member swap under the truck and didn't consider that you might have put the third member in backwards.

48 Chev 3100 that will run a 292 Six.
71 GMC 2500 that is getting a Cad 500 transplant.
77 C 30 dualie, 454, 4 speed with a 10 foot flatbed and hoist. It does the heavy work and hauls the projects around.
