Re: What year trucks had full time 4X4
Just one more reason why I stayed with 71/72 4wds till the late-80s. You could order a real 4wd but all the guys I wheeled with were buying new trucks while I preferred old. I'm not sure how it worked, but my buddy bought a sweet '79 K/20 that had a NP205 and lockout hubs. That was one sweet rig and turned my head toward square bodies. actually, another buddy bought a '77 K/30 dual rear pickup with NP205, but his was a 4spd. Jimmy's '79 was the first automatic/205 I saw in the '70s. I don't know if it was always an alternative or if it was an after thought once it was obvious the full-time wasn't such a great idea.
