The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network - View Single Post - Newly Acquired '68 4x4, What's your assessment?

Yukon Jack: There is a block under the springs - it's about 6 inches high. I haven't tried turning the driveshaft by hand with the transfer case in low. Will that confirm that the hubs aren't working?

Never seen a 67-72 with a divorced transfer case? What's your best guess then - think it's a newer chassis, or older? (It's got drums all around - but it looks like the front axle might be a transplant).

Joe - your dump truck analogy is a pretty accurate description of how it rides. It will definitely find any weak dental work you may have.

All- thanks for the feedback, and keep it coming. I'll keep you posted on any new discoveries as well as progress.
