Yesterday I was in Armada again and I stopped and looked at the 656 (again).
I think I know what the man was referring to when he said it has a "small rearend".
Shockingly, it uses the smaller "H or 460" size clutch housing ! Not the M / 560 /706 ,etc larger housing bolt pattern.
Looking at the bolt pattern where the side rails bolt to the clutch housing, and looking at the location of the 2 upper most (clutch housing) bolts attach to the engine, I can say it is absolutely the smaller H / 460 pattern.
So the 656 is a hybrid of sorts ?! Smaller clutch than a 560 / 706, yet heavier rear end than the 560....
Kind of strange. You can see what I"m talking about in this photo if you are familiar with the side rails and where they attach to the housing. http://www.flickr.com/photos/24235004@N04/2766115487/
