    Taller rear gears

    Looking for some Buick 3.22/3.23 gears to fit a 52 Special rear axle. Prefer the complete diff w/carrier, bearings, and gears. I heard tell these came optional in the 1953 Super (Series 50) 2nd type, and 1953 Roadmaster (Series 70). Know of anyone with these parts?

    Thanks! John

    The 55 Century dynaflow came with 3.42 gears, and those are almost impossible to find. The optional 3.22 will be even tougher

    Yup, but never hurts to look. I have a set of 54 Century 3.41:1 gears which I'll use until I find the 3.23s
