New K2500 Owner

[stutaeng]

Very nice truck. I like the rock guards on the turn signal lights. Does it have the full float or semi float rear axle?

C/K 2500 series trucks/SUVs with SBC have the 14b 9.5 SF, while the BBC/Diesels had the 14b 10.5 FF.

Exceptions are the gov't.-spec trucks... But both axles are mighty strong.

OP, you are removing the LPG setup? There's a few guys that have LPG, mostly in Europe. @Pinger has one.

Semi, 4:10s, g80. I see disk brake ff 14 bolts all the time on the local marketplace. I put one in my Jeep.

We will see if I keep it or not, I mainly want the bed space, secondly I want reliability and ease of troubleshooting. The dual fuel system has a dual curve ignition timing processor thing, I’m sure I wont be able to find replacement parts for it. The mixer and evaporator are impco.

I bought the truck from the original, 82 year old, owner. Said he could go 900 miles using both tanks. He also said he only put on 200 miles a year for the last 10 years and never towed with it…i drove the truck home 1 hour, turns out there was an old rats nest in the intake box. Lol. The truck needs some wear and tear items looked at, a tune up kit, battery, tires, brakes. Considering today’s used truck market I got it for a bargain and hope to get 25 years more service out of it.

The little clips say "Lund" on them, probably a winterizing accessory, It came from north alberta, it is a miracle the body survived.

Super rare Lund Cold Front grill covers! Even if you don't want them; I'm sure there are some members on here who would buy them!
Love the truck! The propane system is interesting, is it a GM factory set up or an aftermarket conversion?

Not sure who did the conversion, the window sticker shows the LPG system was certified in 95 in Alberta, then again in 97 in BC.
