Currie Enterprises 9-Plus Housing BuildBy replacing an old worn straight-six motor with a 300-plus horsepower motor you will likely wear out the stock transmission and, more importantly, the stock rearend. We will save the transmission for another story and focus on the rear housing of '55-59 Chevy chassis. Rear axles and housings tend to confuse a lot of people when searching for what they think they need, but what you think you might need and what would work best for your application just may be two different things. Will a full locker work for a normal street truck or 28-spline axles for drag racing? Maybe they will, but in a practical application a locking rear differential will wear out your rear tires prematurely in a daily driver, and the strength of 31-splined axles are no match for the 28-splined nontapered stock axles.
