I think these jeeps were geared lower than 3.78 as they were used to tow huge artillery pieces off-road. You could always take out a leaf or two if the ride is too harsh. I don't know too much about them actually, but I have friends that own them. The big question is whether the GAZ 4x4 front suspension setup would attach to a Model A frame

You're actually in luck as there's a front axle currently for sale asking 20000 RUB see :
