700r4 installed!!! woohooo!!
 

Well, I finished installing it last night and took it for a spin around the block.The old truck runs good with the 700r4 in her. I now have to hook up the lock power. So this morning I went took cmc u pull it and got my pig tale. While I was ther I was looking for a a/c compressor And low and behold right before my very eyes sat a 72 cheyenne super. Holy **** batman!! I walked up to it thinking it was gutted and I was wrong. I lifted the hood and there it was. The hard to find ac comp. that I've been looking for for two years, brackets and all. So I went to dissmantling. Got all of it for $58.00. I asked if he could sale me the whole truck but he said no. Its even got a four core radiator. I think I'm going back monday to get it.. It also still has the dash with wood grain and the glove box door. I dont know what rear end was in it because the sticker was faided real bad. anybody have any Idea how to tell what gears are in it?

There's a code on the right side of the rear axle.You will probably have to clean it off with a wire brush to read it.If the wheels are off the ground you can also rotate and get close enough to tell.3 3/4 turns +3:73 4.+=4.11
etc.

Thanks for the info. I have a cousin looking for a 3.73 posi, I already have one in mine so i'm just trying to look out for him.

I wish cmc would sale me the whole truck. It wasnt in that great of shape but it still had some good parts on it.

exactly, plus if it won't turn with one wheel off ground jack both up and if they both turn the same dirrection when spun it is a posi unit

Sounds like you had a lucky day. Did it have a tach or tilt???

If the truck was an auto, it was most likely a 3.07. Manual would probably be a 3.73.
