Rear Differential / Ring & Pinion Options

Post by dispatcher1011 »

Hello all,

I think I may need a ring and pinion for in my 1954 M37.

Where can I find the best deal on a ring & pinion?

Keeping it stock.

Might add spider gears while it is that far apart, too... so any help there too would be great.

Seems that some moisture got in the axle.

I might post up some pics later, too, of it.

Thanks in advance.

Might be easiest to get a used center chunk from someone here on the forum-several guys have parts trucks....

What part of the country are you in. I've got a couple spare pumpkins in So Cal.

True, Shipping would probably make them unatractive. The good news is that the 1 ton PW's from WDX through WM300 use the same diff. You should be able to scout one up close to home.
