Had a chance the other night to dig out some more parts I've acquired over the years.
Quite a few years ago i bought a blown 93 K3500 6.5 regular cab for parts. A buddy took the body parts, i took the driveline. Finally paying dividends pertaining to the 4x4 4L80E that i took out of it.
The 91-94 4L80E's use rod style linkage unlike the newer years that use cable. This trans also having the 2 VSS sensors in the case will keep my speedometer working in 2WD, 4 high, and 4 low. 94+ use the VSS in the transfer case which would throw off the speedometer in 4 low.
As far as the transfer case, i did notice between the 93 and 99 case, that the shift linkage and front yoke is different. The splines, dimensions, and bolt pattern is the same, so to match the 99 front driveshaft and 99 shift linkage lever, i'll be using the 99 case with the 93 trans. Just a quick test fit.
And just because..
PY0's and short beds look so good together.
Hoping to get a roller rear axle in the truck this weekend. Just to make it easier to move around. When i do the chassis swap i plan to keep my axle out of the current truck along with it's emergency brake cable and all. Also because the roller axle i have is a 4:10 ratio and my truck, and the new chassis are both 3:73.
