A couple driveline questions - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

What size is the pinion retainer nut (the nut that holds the yoke on) on the rear diff of a '54 3600? It appears to be 1 3/4", but I couldn't find it for sure.

Also, what is the part number or Spicer number (13xx?) for the u-joints in the same truck? Are all 3 the same? Thanks!!

The parts book says the nut is 1"-20 thread, from 41 - 72, 3/4 - 1 Ton, so it may be 1-3/4 nut

Ujoint
41-59 3/4 - 1 Ton 3889696
spicer 5-146X, 3-15/32" Over All Length. All locations
