Re: Post pics. Lets see how many 60-66 4x4 are out there.

Is that a factory grill guard?

I think it`s awesome! That`s a great plan you have and looks like primo work on the fabbing.There`s a member with a long travel front end,I believe.

I looked at this one yesterday.It`s nice,belongs to a fellow member.Built in California,he sold it when he moved east,then his brother found it on Craigslist for sale...it`s back east now.It`s an original GMC 4wd that he redid using `78 K/20 drivetrain and Chevy grille.I have a rear shot,but I don`t know how to scrub out his tag number.

Her's my '61. Yes it's a real one. All original. Major restoration. I did add a Spicer 2021 Under/overdrive in the overdrive position. It just fits between the the t-221 and the Sm- 420. It'll hit 90 if it has to.
There are some badass rides on here. I know you guys like the big tires, but I like 'em skinny and showroom looking.

Re: Post pics. Lets see how many 60-66 4x4 are out there.

Finally! I have been checking trhis site out for years. Now I finally got an old chevy of my own. I have a lot of work to do. But someday it will be as nice as some here. It is a 61 on a 78 frame. Not original but I love it. Having pic trouble........

The Suburban is mine and yes it is real. You don't think I would leave it looking like this if slid something newer under it and/or photo shopped it. HA. The crew cab is one that I almost bought last summer.

Re: Post pics. Lets see how many 60-66 4x4 are out there.

question; did these early 60-66 4x4 transfer cases have a low gear on top of the allready "granny gear" in the gear box?
are they the same in chevy and/or GMC?

Yes they had a low range. With the low gear in the 4 spd trans and the 1.96 to 1 low range it approximately doubled the low gear ratio. The Rockwell transfer case was used in the Chevy and GMC 4x4's from 1960 to 1966 in the divorced application that you have.

Re: Post pics. Lets see how many 60-66 4x4 are out there.

Your welcome. The SM420 transmission has one of the lowest first gears of a light truck 4 speed, close to 7.0 to 1. So if you double that plus multiply it by your axle ratio ye get your crawl ratio. 7x2x3.73=52.22 to 1. That is rounded up except the axle ratio which should be 3.73 for a half ton unless it was ordered with something else.

Anything over 40 to 1 is considered pretty good.

Keep in mind the new NP 241 aluminum t-cases have a 2.72 to 1 reduction ratio. So a NP 241 behind your SM420 would net you a 71 to 1 crawl ratio!

Well half of it is 60 - 66 and the other half is late 70s.





Will be more later when it finally gets home.
