Re: My New Truck....What Do I Have?
If your still not convinced it's a 1 ton chassis, look at the frame. Compare the height of the frame rails to your Dad's 1/2 ton. You will be convinced...

 Hosted on Fotki your spring pack look bigger than my old 84 3/4 gmc, but smaller than my 76 chevy 1 tons...

Re: My New Truck....What Do I Have?
Okay, it must have a 350 then. Pyrotechnic mentioned that someone may have modified the spring pack along the line to make the ride a little less harsh. Also maybe the single-rear-wheel camper specials came with a slightly different set up than the other 1 tons????

this information is incorrect, R and V designations came about in 1987. the last "C10" was produced in 1986, anything later than 1986 became an R/V series truck. |

Re: My New Truck....What Do I Have?
i'd say thats a one ton judging by the bottom leave spring....and if you want to i.d. the motor...you either have to get the 3 digit code off either side of the block by the motor mounts....or by the one on the back driverside ontop of the block right by where the tranny bolts up

Re: My New Truck....What Do I Have?
Hahaha, that is pretty funny. Darn right it doesn't work! Made in Switzerland? Year 2008? Sure doesn't look like a 2008 to me
