The doors are truck-only. And really, there isn't that much to them. Call Jim Turner for the disc brake setup. I wouldn't worry with the tapered axles in a truck. I've heard of a few cars that broke an axle, but never a truck. And they seem to have had rougher lives than cars, too. Matthew >> Stay informed about: 55 Pickup

The 1955 C-cab as are all C-cabs all truck. No car doors, hoods, or fenders on it. The truck rear axle may be tapered but it has larger bearings and shafts. I have never heard of a truck Dana 44 breaking an axle. Ask Lester Schmidt, I think he lives down your way somewhere. Or go to the Studebaker truck page. > http://www.network54.com/Forum/23885/ He has or had the million plus mile Transtar 1/2 ton. me.RemoveThis@notanywhere.net wrote: > questions..

On my '59 PU, we took the 'guts' out of a '60 Hawk differential, and put them in the truck housing. Instead of 4.27 gears, I have 3.53's. Matthew >> Stay informed about: 55 Pickup
