John, I brought the rear end I have home to take a look.  I know it is a
9" drum, but don't know if it is a Lockheed setup.  I haven't taken the
drum off yet, but from the backside it looks the same as my Girling.  But
then again, when I was replacing the brake cylinder on mine, it was in a
Lockheed box.  (New parts that came with the car)  

It is extremely busy at work this week, so I might not be able to get to
it until Tues/Wed next week.  But I will as soon as possible.  

John and/or List:
I have 4 of these rear-ends (all with 9" drums).  Am trying to cut down on
the storage space.  What should I salvage?  How can I determine the ratio?  
(Am I correct that overdrive cars had a different ratio?)  Anybody need
anything?

John:
I realize I'm over here and you are over there, but if there is something
you need from these (after I get the measurements), let me know.


later...
