K30 questions - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Would my 84 K30 C&C front and rear with duals fit directly if I were to put them into an 86 K30 SRW 4x4 pickup? I found an 86 for sale that is SRW and I have the dual setup waiting for a truck. The front end should go in with no issues I think but didn't know since the rear end was C&C with duals. Are the perches the same widths between the two rearend.

no, the front requires different hubs and the rear is different, but the c&c rear will bolt up but if the truck doesnt have any lift on it the tires will hit the bed

The Dana 60 out of my C&C is complete. I would think i could unbolt it and switch it over. I would plan on running a flat bed so that wouldn't be an issue. I should have stated that before sorry.

As far as "bolt-in", yes. All of the 1-tons had the same perch spacing, even the C&C. So yes, the D60F will bolt right in, and the C&C axle will bolt right in.

Thanks. I thought they would but wanted to be sure. I have been trying to find a regular cab dual rear wheeled K30 for some time around here and this is the closest I can get to it. I came to the conclusion that I might have to just buy a SRW K30 and convert it over.
