This is what is on this truck there are about 4 or 5 of them, what you have there I don't believe will work as these are in the bed strips and there is no washer with two screws.

Re: Bed bolts

Neil, its on a 32 BB so i would guess it to be a late body, wouldn't the hold down bolts be the same, I have acouple of them but someone put other stuff in place of the missing, the orginals have the large carriage bolt type head and are 7/16.

Re: Ring and pinion gear set question

Bob,I can't get the pdf of the gear set from job lot to post for some reason I'll get it figured out tomorrow.
I did a search for the gear ratio chart you told me about but haven't found that either.

Re: Ring and pinion gear set question

Bob, can you e-mail me a ph #, I think the set up for the 34/39 might work,why couldn't i just use a splined yoke instead of putting a taper to the pinion.
Thank you

Re: Ring and pinion gear set question

What gear ratios were available for those rears, this one is set up with a 5:14 I want it slower, orginally these came with 7:00 18 tires and wheels, someone put 8:25:20's on and that seems to have geared it way too fast.
Here is what the numbers are for the coach ratio's none of which are available.

Re: Ring and pinion gear set question

Thank you.
Yes that is the type,without the center door, the one I'm working on is the 23 R.
The housings look the same but my hubs look like the 34's, this axle is set up for air brakes but thats just a backing plate to spider change,not a big deal.
