New S-10 frame/engine id

[peglegs]

hey all,
i recently aquired a lost interest project 1940 I H truck with a complete brand new s-10 4x4 rolling frame, V6 engine, 5sp.trans etc.im having difficulty searching for my numbers to identify what year it is so far i believe it is a 92 here are my numbers

fr. rt. pad = T0246UTC
block casting rt. rr.= 10105867
head casting =14094768
dr. side pad stamping/rt rr. top frame rail (same #'s) =CLZ233333

if im correct on the year what do i need or how does the transfer case shifft when its a stand alone, non computer regulated ? changing the tbi to a carburated manifold & the dist problem eliminates that ill need the hyd clutch slave & booster
can u please help or direct me to the site to decifer the frame & engine #'s thanks a bunch

On the t case you might have better luck on http://www.s10extremist.org/forums/ they are more of a off road s10 forum where the rest i have been on are more 2wd slammed type.

my local chevy dealership tells me the only numbers that can identify my chevy is the actual VIN ??????? engine, frame etc cannot. also I have 6 lug wheels & from 87 - 02 that he checked s-10 has 5 lug any help greatly appreciated im beginning to think its not an s 10

pic of the from frame horns would help...

[esbstuff]

5 lug S-Series, 6 lug 1500.

My guess would be 88-98. Since it appears tbi, 88-95...

I would think that this number : "dr. side pad stamping/rt rr. top frame rail (same #'s) =CLZ233333" is the last of the vin...

esbstuff ty for responding after I determine what truck this is my next question is can I make the 4x4 work with switches???

Yeah 6 lug means full size truck see how long the wheel base is on it.On the t case see if you can find any markings to a model number on it.If its a push button 4x4 case you could rig it up to work like that.

Andrew the wheelbase is 118" heres a pic of the t case tag tyvm for your help

this is a quote from another thread

"While the S10 units are internally the same, they have their shifter tower sitting right at the end of the tail shaft, and they have only 5 bolts for the transfercase instead of 6."
in the last pic are these the 5 bolts in question?

another quote
"You can also bolt in a 96 - 06 5 speed into your truck if you are willing to switch over to the internal clutch slave / throwout bearing combo."

I have a slave cylinder on the bell housing

I think its a 88-98 gm truck short bed reg cab is 117.5 inch wheel base,Its a 6 lug the t case is a np241 which was only in a full size truck.The bad news the np241 was a shifter in the floor type but i think you could swap to a push button t case if you want.The np243 had 4 high 4 low 2 high the np246 had 4 low 4 high 2 high and 4 wheel auto.

would i have a functional 4x4 with a floor shifter? jegs or summit have a shifter or do I find a 88-95 p/u

im at the point where my project is at a stall im thinking that getting the 4x4 functional worked out is the key you guys think im on the right track? thanks again

[andrewmp6]

As it is now i think you just need a the floor shifter and linkage for it.
