There are 17 splines in the center hole and 16 teeth around the outside face. None of the ones I'm seeing on ebay have that combination. I have seen plenty for 3/4 ton and up as well as for the two speed rear. Any input? Anybody have a set?
(I know I could have just put a different rearend or any number of non-OEM options, but the owner wants it just like it left the factory.) Thanks!

Hello from Denver, I have a complete torque tube rear end out of a '49 Panel
I think it was rebuilt in 1972. never on the road. I don't have a clue if it is the same or not. I just used a sawzall on the tube. It has fully rebuilt brakes, wheel cylinders, bearings etc... I have the springs, front and rear as well as the front axle you could have as well. Front has fully rebuilt brakes, bearings, wheel cylinders and turned drums as well.
Free if you could use it
