liftmeup · 07-09-2009, 11:32 AM

literally trying to solve a decades mystery. Not looking for a million post count thread so if you have a answer or something close post it up.
anyone else ever seen a spid with this option listed? If so do you have a pic or code ?

Front axle conversion on a 20 series 72. This label is stuck on top of spid but looks the same on the right side close to the bottom.

Ok I am not crazy.. At leaset not in this respect. I have seen it I also noticed it on a picture someone posted of a SPID at one time althought the picture was posted for another reason maybe parts? or to point out another option listed or a collection of Spid post ?? I can't see any pics as my work computer blocks them all. however..

I will paypal $10.00 to the first person who finds the pic and links to it or copy paste it here Cash money !!

no idea but free bump gota pic of the spid maybe its part of the corvette options...lol jk

Not a chance on the Corvette option...but I think it might have been a COPO SS option. Had one on my truck but spilled some Starbucks on the SPID, mice made a nest out of the build sheets and I scrapped the truck not knowing it was so rare!

Free bump for ya!

The is no RPO with the description that contains front axle conversion. F43 - F55 deal with front axles. F59 - F98 deal with front suspension. but again no mention of the word conversion.

The SPID option # might help.I have a Red Book(notorius for being incomplete) that lists several.
F43 Front axle 9000#
F44 Front axle 11000#
F47 Front Axle 7000#
F49 Heavy Duty four wheel drive front axle(K20)
F54 Front axle 12000#
F41 suspension,power disc brakes were standard but F41 was standard only with 454ci or 402 ci engines.It could be purchased at aditional cost with the other V-8's

That's all the info it gives and accuracy should be taken with a grain of salt.

**special-K** · 07-10-2009, 06:27 AM

Is this on a C/20 or a K/20?

Here is a photo of a SPID on a K-20 Fire-Truck. On the lower left side of the label it reads 9502BA Front Axle Unit. I suspect this is what you have seen before. Notice the G80 No-Spin Rear and the 9501BB Posi tract axle and then the 9502BA Front Axle Unit mentioned earlier. This clearly related to the front posi option.
