Re: 1965 Chevy 1/2 to Rear End Gear Ratio

My truck had a 3.73 which was totally too slow IMO. Astro vans that I had I think were around 3.46 or close to it and they had overdrive transmissions. My truck now has 3.07 gears and I wouldn't want it to be any slower than that, with the 1 to 1 transmission.

The roads must have been so much worse way back when these trucks were new or perhaps they spent most of their life on a farm.
