Re: 77 Scottsdale 4x4
Yeah, I never heard of a "heavy half" 4x4. I had a 1973 K/20 and a 1980 K/10. Way different front hub, but if the lock ring is working right and installed correctly the nuts shouldn't loosen except for bearing wear.
GM did do some tricks to bump the GVWs up to something like 6050 or 6100 pounds just to get around the catalytic converter mandate for a while.
