    84 OEM Cruise Control

    Does anyone have a diagram or pictures of the OEM cruise control for an 84 K10? We have now dubbed this truck "Frankenstein's Monster" since it seems to be an assembly of unrelated parts! The steering column is a mess and needs complete rebuilding and it has a lever for cruise control but we...

    Converter Lockup?

    On my 84 K10, I am having the 700R4 rebuilt and the mechanic asked me if I wanted to change the converter lockup to a one wire system. He says it is one wire that goes to a toggle switch on the dash and it will only lock up the converter in 4th gear (overdrive). Is this a good idea? Your...

    700R4 or 4L60?

    Upon further inspection, I find the PO lied and I have a 305 c.i. engine with a 203 transfer case in my 1984 K10. The original 700R4 is toast and no remanufacturer or rebuilder will take it as a core. now, I am told that the newer the transmission I buy, the better. The recommendation is to...

    Smog Pump Required?

    I just purchased a 1984 K10 with the 350c.i. engine and auto transmission. This truck came from a non-inspection area of Arizona and I live in Maricopa County which requires smog checks annually and OEM equipment. This truck has no smog equipment and I don't know what it would have had when it...

    which 700R4?

    I have a 1984 K10 4WD with a 350 c.i. engine and matching 700R4 transmission. The transmission is toast! Will one of the improved later model 700R4's such as 1987 or 1988 be a direct, plug and play swap or do I need to change something? You sage advice is greatly appreciated!
