In the '65 Cat wagon we have a set of Fabcraft 3.55 gears, 4L80e trans, and 235/55R17 tires which are about 27-1/4" tall. Works great for keeping up with the soccer moms on the freeway.

So I called Fabcraft today because I've heard of them being a supplier (and about the only one) of aftermarket gear sets/parts for these 10 bolt Pontiac rear ends. He told me they don't plan to make gear sets for at least another 2 years, and maybe not even after 2 years. He said they have to order 150 sets or so to make the price even make sense. And interest just isn't there yet.

I learned more from him in our 20 min phone call than I would have in 2 days searching online. Super nice and informative guy.

As hard as it may be to find a different gear set I'm wondering if it may be time better spent just doing an axle swap. I have no desire to, but I want to be realistic and think about long term use.
