Found a wd 45 rear end and transmission online for my wd. I could use it since my transmission is noisy and the 45 combo has a lower first gear
I am wondering if the 45 transmission and rear end will bolt to my frame engine and final drives?

Dan,

Seems like that should work fine. Good luck with your rebuild.

Regards,

Chris

The last 20,000 or so WD's were built with that rear section and curved gear shift.

Should be a bolt in

Our '53 WD had the curved shifter stick like the WD-45. The tires were smaller than the '45. I don't know if the wheels were the same. If I remember right the WD's were 12" and the '45 were 13".
