I am wanting to change the ring and pinion gears in the rear end of my 1946 Chevy pickup to 3:55 gears to give it more cruising drive ability. Does anyone know where I could get a set of these gears at a reasonable price ? Thank You, David
Is it Patrick's or Langdon's that is selling NEW 3.55 gears for the early Chevrolet trucks? I am Butch/56sedandelivery.
Jim Carter lists the 3.55:1 gearset for the stock rear end. http://www.oldchevytrucks.com/cart/product.asp?prodid=HP163&i=||||| But I think I've seen them for less $$$ by a supplier in Nevada.
I put 3:55 gears in my 55 second series truck, great improvement over stock 3:90's They are made by Yukon Gear, should be able to order them from a distributor of that brand or call them directly. I don't remember where I bought them it has been a couple years. Jim Carter seems familiar.
