    Transfercase question VSS

    I installed my 1994 k2500 nv4500 transmission and transfercase in my 1997 k3500. The speedo doesn’t work. Should I get one for a 1997 or should it make no difference and maybe the 1994 speed sensor is bad?

    A quick question about the front diff skid plate

    i want to grab the skidplate off of a z71 at the yard, but it is sitting on the ground and so the bolts are not very accessible. Are they the same size and pattern as on the transfercase skid plate? And is there a nut holding the bolt on the topside? Or is it a insert in the frame?
