    What rear end did yall's come with like the gear ratio... My fenders were cut out so I do not know what rear end mine has. Mine is a 4spd, 18r-c, normal bed, nothing special. I know my 20r truck has the g08 rear end which I think is a 4.11, Ive heard something about the 4spd trucks having gearing like 3.something because of only having 4gears.

    Awesome, you should buy more cars from whereever you got that.

    When I got mine the dude said he put like a ton of money into it, all ball joints busted none had cotter pins, tie rods had no cotter pins, all brakes leaked... atleast it ran good after I got the carb rebuilt, he said he rebuilt it himself LOL, it leaked so bad it was just gas pouring from everywhere and it was missing parts, had to rob some parts from a 20r carb.
