I would like to get a better for the highway Rear end ratio. I currently have the standard ratio. Which I believe to be 3.9 to 1. I live in northern illinois does someone have one nearby? 3.6 to 1 ? or better Text or call leave message Eight 15 nine 7 nine 4 five 4 four.

Dave welcome and Merry Christmas.
Going from 3.9 to a 3.6 will give you about 5 mph at a given Rpm. Better to go for a 3.36 which gives a better , in my opinion, hwy speed.. That is what I have in my 1950. The pumpkin will exchange through 1955.

Good luck
Ben

Please understand! This WILL cause you to use 2nd more around town if you have a standard transmission.
