   have you id’d the rear yet? my off-the-cuff guess is an eaton h052/072 used in ’60s gm 3/4t-1t pickups. btw some of these had coils; that’s where nascar ‘truck arms’ came from.

   Hi,

   It turns out its a chopped down and heavily modified/beefed up 1/2 Ton GM rear-end circa 1958-1962 — we have a lead on two 3rd members for it, looks like we could run either a car one (from like a Corvette) or a truck rear end… the trick is finding the right gear ratio .. ideally we’d like a 4:11 for Laguna but would be OK with a 3:06
