The answer to that is : zero were made 4x4.

Longhorn Man · 02-07-2006, 07:25 PM

tynee, there were no 4X4 longhorns ever made from GM.

Wow, look at how many ppl hit #6.

fast_dev · 02-07-2006, 10:01 PM

got one, 1970 c30 402, 4 speed, tach, air, tinted glass, rust lol. was using it to tow my race truck but found my 71 (not a longhorn) that is a no rust ever truck. longhorn is the brown one.

Well, I guess that answers that. Wonder why.

Longhorn Man · 02-08-2006, 07:02 PM

Longhorns were built on the one ton frame, and none of the one tons were 4X4, and the conversion isn't a simple nuts and bolts issue

chevy_fatman · 02-12-2006, 08:06 PM

So what exactly was the difference between a 3/4 ton and a 1 ton? shocks? extra leafs? rear and?

*Medicanman71* · 02-12-2006, 08:19 PM

a dutch longhorn member from the neatherlands... no doubt he's (well one of

) the most, stoned board member...

Being in the neatherlands would be chill enough as is... let alone tooling around in a 67-72 !!!!!!

Big props edmond, the new paint looks killer too!

Longhorn Man · 02-12-2006, 09:34 PM

Paul, springs and rear brakes...that's about it.

Although mine never started out as a longhorn. It will also be 4wheel drive
it more of a mutt than anything. a 69 gmc cab and a 72 (I beleive) longhorn
everything was a rescued

*bskylerj* · 02-13-2006, 06:29 PM

I am picking one up next week. It is a 70 Longhorn with the 402 automatic. It is a 3 owner and only has 77,000 miles on it. Very good shape just needs the wood in the bed replaced.

72armyswbtruck · 02-13-2006, 09:17 PM

Sweet finds are still out there to be had, just have to be on the lookout

adanac · 04-23-2006, 03:00 AM

Here's mine .....

I wanna repaint it with the white in the middle though.

Longhorn Man · 04-23-2006, 03:38 AM

Welcome northern longhorn buddy. That's a mighty nice rig you got there...what's the details?

72armyswbtruck · 04-23-2006, 04:25 AM

Hey if that one was made in Canada what a super nice score

longhorn70gmc · 04-24-2006, 03:51 AM

Hey Andy,
I took some pics today to post. I will try to get them on here soon. I have been lucky with the Avitar so far. Still have some hard copies for you if you would like? The truck has been changing just like yours. AWESOME THREAD! Interested in your FULL GAUGE WIRE as well from another post.
Respectfully

jku72 · 04-24-2006, 08:53 AM

It's more than just springs and brakes, the frame itself has a higher section modulus. In simple terms, its bigger and stronger, as well as longer. Hey, I'm a poet and didn't know it.

GOOD2GO · 04-24-2006, 03:03 PM

I just got a '69 Longhorn in Jan.
This is my first post. Great site
My Truck was built in Oshawa, Ontario

**too much stuff** · 04-24-2006, 05:00 PM

Andy, not sure if it counts but i have a 72 cheyenne 20 longhorn that is beyond hope. But if you are just trying to locate them, add one more.
Don loverink also has a 72 cheyenne 20 longhorn stored here.

Longhorn Man · 04-24-2006, 06:35 PM

That makes you a longhorn owner.
Good to go.... welcome to the board man. your rig is one of 2457 built, no clue how many were sold in the great white north though.
Go to the FAQ pages, you'ss see a how to on pic posting.

67_C-30 · 04-25-2006, 11:09 PM

Not a Longhorn owner myself...yet! But Here's a couple of 9' foot steppers and Longhorn Dually for ya!

Longhorn Man · 04-26-2006, 12:03 AM

I spoke to the owner of that blue one...saw it on e-bay in 99, and the guy just sold it back to the original owner last year.
it's pretty well ragged now.
