    Offroad Marketing Part Time Kit?

    I agree, leave the part time kit and the lockouts in it, they make the truck drive a bunch better by keeping the front axle unlocked until you want or need it. Mark

    Dana 60 conversion?

    Yes on the front axle, Sorry for the confusion. We were considering going to a single wheel but I'm just going to leave it alone, I have been gathering parts for a month and have just about enough stuff to do the entire chassis. I need to get the big block out of the 2wd so I can get it torn...

    K30 transfer case questions

    I agree on the 4 speeds in the trucks, I enjoy to drive them. Do you have a part number on that adapter for the 4l80e to 205?

    K30 transfer case questions

    I was just wondering about that, I have never seen any that weren't 400t or sm465. On the 91 with a 4l80e what did they have for a case? Mark

    K30 transfer case questions

    Did any of those trucks come with anything other than a 400 turbo? In the 3/4 ton trucks the 700r4 and 208 combo was very popular and was wondering if they ever did that in the military version? Mark

    K30 transfer case questions

    Thanks guys, it is just odd to me to see n that didn't have a 205. I wonder what the reason was to go to the 208 in the military version? Mark

    K30 transfer case questions

    Ive bought another K30 and when I was looking at it I noticed it has a np208 in it? I have never seen one that didn't have a 205 i it, it looks factory to me. The truck is a 6.2 diesel, 400 turbo, 208, Dana 60, 14 bolt, it appears to be an exmilitaty truck if that matters. Just going to use it...

    1979 K25 Automatic NP203 or NP205

    I agree, I've seen many 750 to 1000hp big block pulling trucks with a 205 in them and they are fairly trouble free. I've never hurt one and I have been mean to a few of them. Mark

    Motor Dies While Driving

    Sounds like an ignition problem to me, I've had a couple Of hei's do this to me, they would be fine until they would get heat soaked after running for a while. Since you already checked the coil and it ohmed out correctly then I would put a pick up coil and module in it. If you have an old hei...

    1979 K25 Automatic NP203 or NP205

    Don't worry about the 205 and future repairs, if you change the fluid in it and it looks ok then run it and don't look back. It was the best case GM ever put in a truck and they a virtually trouble free. Mark

    Got the bored & stroked 454 short block together

    Why would you even consider doing a 6 cylinder when you have the big block? I'm not bashing, I just can't imagine going to all the work and expense to do the 6 cylinder when you will have twice the power with the big block. A good running big block will drag the truck around so much easier and...

    Miss, bogg, stutter whatever you like

    Where is the timing set at idle, how far does it advance at a what rpm if it missing it is probably fuel related. Mark

    Nv4500 questions

    Erik is exactly correct, the only fluid you should run in the nv 4500 is gl-4 rated gear lube. Gl-5 will attack the synchros in it and I've seen them delaminate and make it almost impossible to get in gear. The person that said something about using a amsoil is also correct. That is all I used...

    There is no doubt it will be sideways in 3rd most of its life!! I have been buying stock in BFG tire company for a long time for that reason. Haha I need to figure out how to post pictures and I will post some of both trucks before we start to disassembly and we will go from there.

    New guy from Indiana

    New to the forum but not new to square bodies, I've owned and built several and all of them ended up with a big block, 400t/205, 60/14 bolt combo. This truck is going to be a little different, it is going to be my daughters high school ride. We bought an 85 K30 that is a 350, sm465, 205, d60/d70...
