Re: 1971 K10 Stepside - Getting a Roller Roadworthy
Round/32 spline/NP205 is a good find. Twin sticks are fun too. The front output looks like a newer seal, maybe it was recently went through when it was converted to twins.
Either way, Nice score!

Re: 1971 K10 Stepside - Getting a Roller Roadworthy
Removed the front and rear bumpers today, along with the PTO winch. The rear bumper was welded directly to the frame, so I started by cutting the "brackets" in half to get the bumper out of the way. There were two sections of rail road track sandwiched between the bumper and the rear crossmember. I then cut the bracket welds most of the way through and then pounded on the bracket with a sledge until the welds cracked. I then ground some of the welds smooth. The others will have to wait until I remove the leaf spring brackets to put them back in their original places.

Front bumper and winch removal photos
I acquired a replacement radiator support since the original one was notched for the winch and it has angle iron welded all over it. I also acquired a 4WD fan shroud. |

You're having some good luck finding parts.

Re: 1971 K10 Stepside - Getting a Roller Roadworthy
Removed the rear end today, and freed one shackle bracket from the funky lift. Used a cutoff wheel and a Dremel to cut the welds. I still need to clean up the frame and brackets. I've got five brackets left. It's gonna take me a couple more weekends to finish this.

Re: 1971 K10 Stepside - Getting a Roller Roadworthy
Nice work!!! The rear bumper on my K20 was welded to the frame as well. I feel your pain, it can be a real blast dealing with PO shenanigans.

Re: 1971 K10 Stepside - Getting a Roller Roadworthy
Nice work, you took off a lot of weight removing those bumpers.
Cool find with those pieces of track. They make great little anvils.
