Re: 68 GMC 4x4 Suburban build up
I don't know the gear ratio, but I could pull the cover off and figure out.
I am in the Temecula area just off Winchester Rd on I-15.

Re: 68 GMC 4x4 Suburban build up
Been trying to make some progress.
I got a P/S Pump & bracket from board member 68bowtie thanks a ton! Went to mount it up and of course with this truck... The holes in the 327 were not fully drilled & tapped so I had to do that as well. I also found some 35x12x16.5 BFG Rollers on craigslist for $100 bucks I Just picked them up and will mount them on my Slot Mags tomorrow and polish them up Funny is the guy I picked them up from recognized me (went to school with my wife) I can't go anywhere...

Re: 68 GMC 4x4 Suburban build up
Are you trying to get the burb running on the OE drive train?

Re: 68 GMC 4x4 Suburban build up
I think that's a good idea.
I've learned when on a tight budget, to leave things running and mobile until I am ready to do a full swap. Keeps you from getting the feeling of being overwhelmed, especially when stuff sits all apart and in the way.

Re: 68 GMC 4x4 Suburban build up
Anyone have pictures of the clutch setup? How the Z bar and rod hooks up? Clearly something is off with mine and I can't figure it out... (sm465)
Also Inline said they will refund the parts but with the shipping both ways I am still out a decent amount of $. They said the problem is "Because mine is a GMC it has leaf springs and not coil" I then argued the point all 4x4s were leaf spring...

Re: 68 GMC 4x4 Suburban build up
That is helpful also if you could get how the rod goes from the z bar to the tranny. No rush at all.
