  • Rear Axle: Zip Van Axle Ratios and Width

    The Zip Vans of '63 & '64 apparently all had "Twin Traction" rear axles. Does anyone know the ratio(s) used and whether the width is that of the same year cars or particular models ? Thanks, Dan

    Someone can verify by looking it up, but IIRC they were all 4.27:1 Twin Traction truck style rear members. Zip Vans used 5X5 wheels, not 5X4.5 like cars used.
