Factory Cruise Control! Need Pics - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

KrashMan454 · 01-03-2011, 01:20 PM

Hello guys and Happy New Year! I have been coming on here for a couple of years now but I still feel like I am new to the forum. I have several projects going, but one on the back burner that I want to pull back out is my Cheyenne. It is a well options truck, but my plan with it is to Max out the options. I am almost there! It has Tilt, tac, 402BB, Posi, Cheyenne Super option, and I have picked up some correct buckets seat with a console that I have to rework. My question today is what is the correct cruise control setup on these trucks. What did they look like and how did they hook up? I have researched this on here but about all I have come up with is a few pics of truck on the forum. Is the control button surposed to be on the dash or is it in the turn signal lever? Which is correct or could both be correct? What year did cruise come out on our trucks? Was it on any SPID lables? I would like to see Pics of this rare option! How it is hooked up under the hood especially the 402BB setup on the carb. Did it only come as a dealer install option or did it come strait from the factory or both? I have been collecting parts but not sure if what I have is correct! Would like to see lots of pics! Thanks for any help! Krash!

I believe it was a dealer install option on the 71 and 72 model years but was available as a factory option on some of the earlier years. My truck had what most consider the 73 up dealer install cruise. I am confident it was installed at the dealer when my truck was purchased new. I have no doubt that the 73 style cruise was at the dealers while there was still some of the 72 year model trucks on the lot. I'd be happy to take pics of what is there but mine is a small block and you have probably already seen them in your research here. I'll be watching to see what others have to say as this seems to come up every so often. Nice truck BTW.

I would really like to see any pics you have weigthter or not it is a BB or SB! I am also looking to find somebody or some place who rebuild these units or parts kit to rework the unit myself? What you said about some being installed in early 1973 makes since. I think the cruises installed as a factor option and not a dealer option had the control on the dash? The 1973 and later had the control on the turn signal, which is what I have. I am just guessing and I could be wrong! Thanks!

Hey KrashMan454, I took a few pictures of a Speedostat cruise control unit on my truck, made by Perfect Circle/ Dana Corp., hope these help

My SPID doesn`t mention cruise control, and I don`t have receipts to show where or when it was installed.

**RenoKeene** · 01-03-2011, 03:11 PM

I believe this is dealer installed on my 72 Custom Camper. The control mod is under the dash in the cab (Dana Corp) and the control is on the turn signal lever. Hope this helps a little.

KrashMan454 · 01-03-2011, 06:26 PM

I was looking in the FAQ index and found this! But would still like Pics of what everyone is running! http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...?t=136867nyone is running on there truck!

chewychevy67 · 01-03-2011, 11:48 PM

Roger Koop is a guy out in the Mid west states, guys on here told me about him and gave me the contact info. which I have now lost. Maybe some one will post it up for you. He has lots of parts, but I do not know what his inventory consists of.

What are the differances between the two switch levers???

Twisted78SS · 01-06-2011, 12:11 AM

I have a copy for both the 69-70 and the 71-72 posted online in pdf format. Feel free to download a copy.
