8 3/4" from a 1/2 Ton P/U or Van For "A" Body

Ill spill one of my not so well kept secrets here. If you find a mid-'70's 4x4 truck with an 8 3/4 rear under it, snag it. It will have a 3:55 Suregrip in it, as that was the only center that was compatible with the Dana 44 front axle, which would have a 3:54 ratio. Could you get lucky and find a 4:10 or 4:56 also?? Maybe, but I've never seen this in a mid 70's truck!!
