Looking to see what gear ratios I can get (4.11 now I guess)

3 on the tree 235 Six...Also where can I get a spare tire cut out fender? 1961 Apache... The other is My 67 looking to meet other Chevy truck people in the area...

Nice trucks. What axle is in it need to know that for gears what are you trying to get out of a gear swap better gas milage? what size tire ? you may find your better off ading an over drive trans with the 235 you could use a nv3550 from an s10 with not trouble at all and have an over drive. but then you would have tu put the shiffter up through the floor.

Are you in the "Suburban" bay area

?Nice truck!If you have 4.10s the highest gearing will be 3.73 in that carrier.As far as the fender goes,most guys these days are looking for the non-cutout type.You could prolly swap + money or have them take care of your paint for even-up.Are those almond,walnut,trucknut trees,or what???How`s the new turf treatin`ya.I don`t think we`re in Pennsyltucky anymore,Todo.

You need to get some pictures of the`67 out there.I`m thinking Pt.Reyes on the bluff with the Pacifico in the background.
