Thanks for the info. My 47 Wagon came with the 289 and C-4 from a 1967 Mustang.
If the rear end is working for you, it will make it easier for me to keep the
entire drive train Mustang. If you had a chance would you run a different ratio
or is the 3:00 ratio good? Seem like it should be pretty good for MPG and 99% of
my driving is highway.

Thanks again,
Jerry Stoper

Hi Jerry,

The previous owner (or one of 'em) had already done the conversion to my 54
SDDL.

I did get the numbers off of the id tag... it is WEB-B 3.00 GAD 880.

as near as i can tell (from a 1968 FORD shop manual for Cougar/Mustang) it is
probably a 3.00:1 gear ratio, conventional differential (not limited slip) ,
number of teeth - ring:39 pinion:13. I believe that the entire drive train
came from ~66 Mustang .

Hope this helps.

Good Luck, eric
'54 SDDL
