Think all the Tork-tubes were 4:11 cept maybe powerglide, not sure what they
had. I tore down a 41 which is same for trucks with tork way up in years and
it was 4:11. No one wanted any parts, cept maybe the front ball for joint
and some of the big pins and mounts in gear case. And maybe the axles. Rest
I junked!
