Re: [Amc-list] ramblings of a twisted mind and Head grooving (Ranger axle in American)

Try a Chevy S-10 rear axle. It fits, and might be closer to the ratio you want.

Someone is tickling my fancy on a daily driver too.  ARG.

65 American wagon.... oh, geez, I wish the convertible would go away, poof! It is gone....
I can't just scrap it, that feels too much like my shoulder has won the game!

Oh, a 65 wagon would fill the need for a daily driver very well! 
>From flathead to 4.0L from the three speed to a 5. 
The small ring geared Ranger rear axle in around a 3:08 ratio, prolly have to built that, don't think they put the :03 in the ranger only the mustangs. Maybe try a 3:27 ratio for starter.
  Wagon would haul the dog and our assorted gak.  
Dream on, probably not going to happen.
