    Real quick question. Will a 58-64 chevy car rear end bolt into a 64 chevy truck? Thanks in advance.

    Thanks. Are the center sections interchangeable?

    NO................... But to the first Question. You could BUT you would need to cut off all the old brackets then weld on the truck pads.. Then you would discover that the car rear is to narrow. This would cause you to buy wheels with all offset to the outside.. and they would still rub the bed while driving into corners or with a load..The easy way out is to find a later truck. swap the rear end. its a bolt in. The only problem is you will need 2 spares. the later unit has 5 lug bolts. I hope this helps some.........
