Re: Roof rust
Leaf spring Eaton stuff is a little hard to find. But any single wheel housing from 1948- 72 and dual wheel housing 1948- 1955 works . All axles are the same width in the whole series. The Eaton is built like a Ford nine. And factory Detroit lockers are not hard to find. The 14 bolt disk brake conversion works on the housing I mentioned. Or later 14 bolt drums and plates can be used. The best part of the Eaton is the fully welded steel housing. I fully set up Eaton is about 150 pounds lighter than a 14 bolt. Has 2 inches better ground clearance. And it's just plain cool looking.
