MY 1969 PETE ON YOUR STEPDECK? SHOT IN THE DARK!!

If I understand what Colorado said there's a further gear reduction going on here and that would affect the rate at which the rear drive shaft (only) spins. The front shaft would be spinning slower. Then again I could be totally wrong as I have proven time and time again (lug nuts LOL).

 

It spent it's life on a farm in Northern CA with a water tank on it's back.

 

Where am I going to find the data-plate so I can be positive what we are talking about?

 

I DIDN'T SAY THAT!!!
I said a different rotating speed between the front and rear driveshafts.

 

I DIDNT SAY THEY DID!!

Omg. I'm just saying if, and I don't know this to be true, IF there is a reduction in gear between the front driveshaft and that first drive axle then the front driveshaft and rear driveshaft will not spin at the same rate. I'm not an idiot I don't think the Two rear ends are going to spin at different Velocities.

 

Im not mad. Just trying to make myself clear. Then please educate me. what is this between the driveshaft and the front drive axle?
