Re: '61 Dana 44 vs '64 Dana 44?

I have a 3.73 LS Dana 44 out of my 64 if you want it. I narrowed a 9.75 for a 4 link swap. 50 bucks? Could probably use seals... no rust as it is an AZ truck. OK, is it a locker? If so Depending on shipping that sounds fine. I'm in the south west MO. area so It might be easier to just get the carri...

Re: Slick Stock 8 Information REVISED!

this will be my first slick stock, as well as dads. So do we have to stay at that hotel to be signed up or? Looking forward to driving my 64 down there with the fresh y block and power steering hopefully, as well as seeing more slicks in one spot than I ever have 8)

'61 Dana 44 vs '64 Dana 44?

is there any big differences in a 61 Dana 44 rear end vs a 64 Dana 44 rear end? I know they should still bolt up but the parts catoloug goes from 64-72 so I figured somthings may hve changed but that probably just where they stopped and started I guess.

Re: 64 front spings look like knives & bottoms out fairly ea

Several places in southwest Missouri you can find those. Some very old junkyard there. Be sure to get new bushings for the springs and shackles. Makes a lot of difference in drive quality. Not as much wandering around of the front end. And 380 does sound very high but these do come with new bushing...

Re: Tailgate lower rubber bumper $, just sheet metal screws?

Just measured mine on my 64. They are 9 1/8" from the top of the bed. Don't have a solution to the gate not latching well. The old style latches did require a little SLAMMING to get it to close. Most late model trucks now have a bear claw type latch that makes them shut easier. From the top of...

Re: Tailgate lower rubber bumper $, just sheet metal screws?

Never slam the tailgate on one of these trucks. Pull handle out and close it. You may not have things adjusted right, although I don't recall there being much adjustment to the tailgate, just the pieces on the bed. Also, repeated slamming will cause damage to the parts. Well I'm not slamming it rea...
