Rear end for 70 d100

Post by AustinWolfe »

Hello everyone, I have a 1970 d100 single cab long bed with a 318 and a nv3500. I am wondering what the best rear end for it would be. Planning on building it for a street/daily truck and very light towing. Currently has the 8 3/4 that originally came with it but I am wanting to switch to disc brakes, not sure if that effects anything

Nothing wrong with the 8 3/4. Disc Brake kits for it are available. Look at cars for that era with 8 3/4. :salut
