Re: 1971 K20 Rat Rod Resurrection

Damn. I just happened to be looking into transmissions and rear ends, thinking about trying to improve highway driving and I come across the fact that I think the P.O. screwed me once again. Apparently, what is supposed to be a 'hypoid, full floating type, ratio 4.57" rear axle ISN'T. Being a complete newbie, I had no idea that this rear is only an 8.5" 10-bolt rear - which is NOT the original rear axle for the 1971 K20 Suburban!! Am I wrong on this, anyone??
