Re: Yet to be named... ‘78 K10 Suburban

You could run the rally wheels without rings and caps, it doesn't really look bad that way. I don't know of an 8 inch wheel that accepts stock caps, but there may be something out there. The cruise may have been bypassed because it didn't work, only one way to find out. It's just an ordinary speedo cable in and out, you may be able to find some generic ones that will work.

The 203 has an internal differential to allow you to drive on pavement in 4wd. But, if one wheel totally loses traction, you can get stuck. That's why the shifter has the lock position, it locks the front and rear axles together for more traction. There are part-time conversion kits out there, not sure how complicated the installation is. Lots of reading on the four wheeler boards.
