is my 1976 small or big hump for carpet replacement?

Need to order carpet, all the catalogs say floor shift manual trans and 4x4 are big hump and 2wd auto are small hump. However I have heard all bolt in humps are big....Im confused because I clearly have a bolt in hump and cutout for standard trans if needed.

1976 GMC Sierra C15 2wd TH350 trans with 350 VIN L engine

Is there another way to tell?


Heres a view looking from underneath my truck

JB, it looks like your truck was originally a 4spd granny. I think thats a high hump.

Re: is my 1976 small or big hump for carpet replacement?

My guess would be high hump because it's bolted in. It's only a guess though.

Look here, http://forum.73-87chevytrucks.com/sm...c,11838.0.html

Re: is my 1976 small or big hump for carpet replacement?

LMC shows two carpet options, a 2wd low hump, and a 2wd/4spd or 4wd high hump. My guess is also high hump.

I think it may be high, previous owner replaced carpet and it never fit correctly, like it was stretched away from hump and didnt contour floor.

Pics worked for me (even on dial-up) and they're in his tech section so they're pretty much locked down. You may have to wait for them to load though.

When you post up a pic of yours, someone will help identify exactly what you have.

This is a pic from a 76 3/4 2wd manual. I called this high hump. Not sure if this helps....

Re: is my 1976 small or big hump for carpet replacement?

2wd auto/ 2wd manual column shifted = low hump

2wd manual floor shifted (both M20 and My6); and 4wd = high hump

As others have said - looks like you've had some floor shifted manual action at some point in the past.

What makes you think the truck was originally a TH350? Because that's what's in it now? Any other indications (brackets and such) that would indicate it was originally a manual trans?

Re: is my 1976 small or big hump for carpet replacement?

Looks to me like a 2wd high hump, same as pic xrcr posted.
Hole in the floor, clutch? Kinda looks like it as the patch jobs look similar, or at least done at the same time.

I agree, looks like a 2wd high hump.

I neglected to take any pictures of my bare floor; it's a 2wd high hump (because of the MY6) but not a bolt in.
