    do you reckon a 3.55 rear end out of a '66 ford truck would be a good 9" for the van? the van is a 1962 with a 200 ci. thanks fellas!

    Do the truck wheels have the same bolt pattern? (To myself I'm thinking 5 x 5 1/2 on the truck) What about the width? I agree that the ratio would be good, or maybe even a 3.25.

    Good score Steve... sounds perfect! These vans normally had 4.00 peanuts for in-town courier stuff, but 3.50 was an option. Shouldn't have to scream on the highway anymore! And the price??? Awesome! What luck!

    Steve, are you trying to put the complete rear end from the '66 Ford truck (F-100) in your van, or just the 3rd member?
