Transfer Case I.D. - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Tito19 · 04-13-2013, 12:16 AM

So we pulled my dads 69 k20 truck out of the field its been siting in for more than 12 years and started wrench on it and came across this transfer case under the truck. It doesn't look like any of the usual transfer cases on this gen truck(np205,206). As you may have noticed, I'm new to these trucks. Thanks.

Welcome sir! That is a great start to a nice ride. Wonder why he would just leave it in a field? I guess so he could pass it on to you!

What size tires are on your truck? I assume there is no lift. Do you know if they rub?

I need tires in the future.....

Tires: 35x12.5x16.5 they did rub so I notched out about ~2.5 inches on fender. The rear fit fine with no rubing. When I say no rubing this means on the street, haven't had the chance to articulate the suspention but it looks like there is room. O, and you are correct no lift.

Welcome and nice truck. T221's are decent. Make sure it has enough oil at ALL times. They tend to run a little warmer and be a little louder than the 205's but with proper care should fare pretty well
