Hey Mike (Crew70)! Long time!
No, the center section that 1969 GMC got is a 5.14 out of my 1968 C30 Chevrolet Open Road motorhome. Very very similar to the one I got from you, but this one had 28k original miles, and the camper was ready to use! I did pay a bit more that the 67 GMC I got from you, but drove it 400 miles home from Escanaba, MI with no trouble. The 67 GMC has a 4.57 HO72 (with load bolt), and would work great with an overdrive. (anyone have a used gear vendors overdrive for a TH400?).
1969 GMC, glad you finally got your treasure! Hope your dad's "parts" recover soon as well! I know mine were dragging the ground after moving that thing around! You might want to hang on to that crate, the way plywood is going up, you might be sitting on a small fortune! It makes a handy garage stool as well!
I have a 4.10 HO52 with a locker that came out of a 72 K20. It does have the load bolt.
The 5.14 and the 4.57 HO72 sections that I have had also had load bolts.
I dont understand the rhyme or reason to what got load bolts? I would assume all C30s?
Maybe all HO rear ends with factory lockers as well? Anyone have a locked rear without a load bolt?
