    Anybody running one? I'd rather go 5 lug camaro or similar, but may have a line on a '60's c10 rear. Any issues besides the coil springs? Rear is going into a '50 Chevy 3100 truck. Thanks.

    Have you measured the width of each axle from wheel mount surface to wheel mount surface? I think you will find the 60's C10 axle is too wide for your 50 A.D. 3100.
    Maybe something on this site will help http://www.persh.org/Pickup/IdeaPage.htm

    it should work, but if your running a inline 6 motor make sure the rearend is off a 6 also. if you have a v8, rearend should be off a v8 rearend. NOT a deal breaker but would run alot smoother. good luck on your build.
