Ok so looking for a basic answer I think. I have a 51 Chevy three on the tree. I have a power glide rear end in my back yard. Can I just switch out the third members? Is the torque tube ends the same for the transmissions? Sent from my iPhone using H.A.M.B.
yes, you can just change the third members. the torque tubes are the same. I made this change on my 52 chev in the 80's , makes freeway driving a lot easier
Definitely, and it's the easier way. Now if your rear end (49-50) had Huck brakes, then it would be best to swap the entire torque-tube/housing/axles. I am Butch/56sedandelivery.
