1980 K30 diesel running gear?
I am looking for some information on the possible running gear for a 80 k30 running a 6.2. Specifically, I want to make sure the transfer case is an NP205....judging from a thread I already read, I assume that to be the case. Any idea on standard equipment.....axles, gearing, locker?

Re: 1980 K30 diesel running gear?
is it srw or drw? cab and chassis or pickup? auto or stick?
Front axle *should be* a dana 60, transfer case will be a slip yoke np205, rear axle could be a 14 bolt or D70HD. Trans is either th400 or sm465.

Re: 1980 K30 diesel running gear?
I wonder how much is original.The motor isn`t.The 6.2 came out in`82.Some of the CUCV K/30s didn`t have NP205s.There were options on the gear ratios.Do you want to know what the choices were?As far as I know,4.10 and 4.56.Not sure about 3.73 in D60/14-bolt.I don`t think so.
