Hate to impose on you AD guys once again...
The 53 trucks came with a 3 or 4 speed transmission-was the rear end ratio 
the same with either transmission or was it different? Can't see them 
installing different ratios as generally the final tranny output shaft 
ratio is the same on all manuals--1:1 ratio with the engine. In regards to 
the torque tube setup for the 3 and 4 speed setups, are the torque tube 
lengths different between the 2 trannie options? I'm assuming the rear end 
is the same between the two versions and wondering what rear end ratio 
options were available on the 1/2 ton trucks.  --wayne
