Re: Random pictures you took of your K
Murphy Hogback campsite on the White Rim trail. The only thing that sucked was the heat.
![]() Same spot a few hours later as it was still to hot to comfortably sleep inside the truck. ![]() To give the shortest synopsis of the trip, here we go in three pics. Driving over through the Eisenhower tunnel on our way to Moab. ![]() The aftermath of the Steelbender trail. Stock skidplates do not support the weight of a 7,000-pound tank when you belly out on a ledge. ![]() Going back through the tunnel on the way home... ![]()

Re: Random pictures you took of your K
Nice shots. Carnage always sucks but at least now you have an excuse to upgrade! 205 time??

Re: Random pictures you took of your K

A 205 would cure that issue, but so would a properly supported (on both ends) skid plate. For the strength I'd gain, I'd lose gear reduction. Right now with the 6.34:1 low gear in my nv4500 the 2.72:1 in the 241 and my 4.1 gears I have a 70:1 crawl ratio. If I went to a 205, the 1.96:1 low range would drop me to 50:1 in low/low. The only way to get the gearing back would be to put a ORD Magnum box in front of the 205, which uses the same planetary gearset as the 241. Sure I'd have the added bonus of going low/low/low and get almost 140:1 but I don't need to go that deep, nor do I have the funds to go that way. Speaking of cost, price out a round pattern 205 with the 32 spline input IF you can find one. Plus I'd have to find a 90-91 to get the VSS output or buy more goodies to convert one from mechancial speedo to VSS. I won't bring up using a AA kit to adapt a figure 8 pattern 205 to my nv4500. Besides more cost I'm not chopping the output shaft of my freshly rebuilt trans to facilitate that mess. The 241 is getting treated to a full rebuild kit of bearings/seals and a Tom Woods SYE to rid the t-case of the slip yoke setup. That and installing a spare rear housing I have stashed in the garage.

Re: Random pictures you took of your K
My 69 K/30!! I know GM never made a K/30 until 1977 but this started life as a 69 C/30 longhorn and was shortened 18” then converted to a 4X4 and was fitted with a Dana 60 front And a 14 bolt rear out of a 81 K/30 so it is 4X4 which is a K model and is a C/30 series so combined it’s a K/30 lol

Re: Random pictures you took of your K
I stopped and took a picture there before myself. A friend has the second place toward town on the right, old stone house. That truck is a genuine K/30, now that you created it that way. And a shortbed GM never built, too. GM never did this but you did, all GM!

Re: Random pictures you took of your K
Nice picture. Nothing like rolling along on the snow in a K/20.

I wish it was in "A" garage... Or under a carport ... or a shade tree.
