Re: I think it’s time for a new transmission
If you're trying to keep it 8 lug, go with a 14 bolt rear out of a squarebody. You would also need to weld on new mounting perches to work with the trailing arm suspension. I'm not sure how much the year matters. What's more important is figuring out what gears you want. 3.73s would be good with an overdrive and you could still do some towing with it if that's your plan
