Title: Rear differential
Post by: Len Williams on April 10, 2020, 03:40:13 PM
Does anyone know if the center section (pumpkin) from a 1937 or later axle bolt into a 1936 axle housing. I know the 37 and later center sections are Hypoid and 36 and earlier are not but twill the center section swap?

Did you find out about swapping out the rear end bc I'm needing the same info? Would like to put a 3.54 P3 economy gear ratio into a P2. Thanks

I for one did not answer because I do not know. Sometime, maybe 1936 or 1937, there was a big redesign of the rear axle. I know the 1933-34 share basically the same design. I think the 1935 has that earlier design too and maybe the 1936. But the later 1930s are different. I just don't know when the change was made.

You would need to look in a Hollander's Interchange manual for the answer to this.

If you still require this info, I do have a Hollander Exchange. I can look up the info and post a response here. Let me know. - Keith

Sorry for the lengthy delay in responding.

Looking in my 1949 Hollander Exchange. Carrier assemblies. Plymouth 33-36 all the same except 7 passenger. They are calling it carrier assembly # 367.
The 367 carrier assembly is also listed as fitting 1935 thru 41 7 passenger vehicles.

Under the exchange section it lists #367
Desoto 37-48 7P
Dodge 33-36 6 except 7P
Dodge Truck 33-36 1/2T
Dodge 37-48 7P & Limo
Plymouth 35-41
