Re: 4wd spicer hub color
Here's a '67 MY lock hub. Unrestored. From a '67 K/10 Suburban 3-Door.

Re: 4wd spicer hub color
All Spicer hubs are in this discussion that was not begun by you, and all information is pertinent.
The vehicle pictures, all along, prove nothing to me. Even unrestored, because that doesn't mean un-serviced. The copyright '67 service manual finally proved to me the plastic hubs predated '70 on some 1/2t K-models. The all metals were also used (used up?) through '69 on trucks. I believe now that all these lockout hubs interchange, even when listed for specific years and models, within a series

Re: 4wd spicer hub color
Interesting to note the '69 MY Blazers have a ''B'' preface to their VINs. My own '71 Jimmy -- while a St Louis truck, and a GMC -- does not.
I never knew that in 51 years of driving my C/10 Stepside... The 1971 Jimmy K/1500 Does have the Blue hubs. Somewhat faded. [Mostly mud-spattered.]

Re: 4wd spicer hub color
This thread has taught me a few things, I appreciate the effort and actual literature posted. I still have never seen a 1/2 ton in person before 70 that had red dials, I’ve honestly only seen 2-3 sets of real GM style red dials in person, but all of them were on 70’s. That said it sure does seem possible they were around before then. I’ve enjoyed the new life this thread has received.
Though not 67-72, These are my personal all time favorite hubs though. Dana 60 bad assery! They may not be as pretty as the blue dial 3/4 ton 44 hubs, but they represent pure beef lol.

Re: 4wd spicer hub color
I like the Warn Premiums on the Dana 60s. They are a handsome set of hubs. If I had $250 on me yesterday at the swap meet I would have bought the set my friend was selling

Re: 4wd spicer hub color
I agree those are some nice looking hubs. Mine need to be refreshed. I’ll get to it one of these days.

Re: 4wd spicer hub color
These pictures are from a GMC brochure for 1970 (printed 7-69), hubs on the Jimmy were blue and the pickup still has what appears to be the all metal hub lok hubs or maybe just drive flanges since lockouts were optional.

Re: 4wd spicer hub color
Thanks for the photos. My March 1970 produced Blazer has the blue. I've seen earlier 1970 K/5 K10 with red. Trying to pin down when the switch was made.

Re: 4wd spicer hub color
The '70 Blazer CST I owned had red knobs. But I have no idea what part of the year it was built. I have always seen either/or. I only have owned on '69 K/10 and it had the metal Spicers. I believe all K/20s had the metal and K/10s had either/or. I think the old style Spicers were used less that the plastic on '69 K/10s. I don't know about Blazers

Re: 4wd spicer hub color
The bronze K10 was found on the net, and is not mine.
