Need advice on whether to swap trannys or rear end. Have a '56 1/2 ton step
side with OE front and rear suspension and axles, 283 V8 with TH350 auto
trans. Suspect the rear end ratio is 4.11 (you could get 3.90 or 4.11 in
'56). At 60 MPH engine RPM is 3000-3200. I'm thinking about swapping the
350 for a 700R4 with lockup converter. Anyone had experience or can furnish
advice? Would appreciate any help.
