Re: Ultimate work truck/ 70 K10 diesel
For now I'm gonna run the 3500. If I ever need to replace it, What year 4500 should I look for? It would need to be a 2wd unit. If I can find a dodge one, can I put a gm bellhousing on it? And will the 3500 hydraulic clutch MC work?

Here is how to visually identify what you want to look for in the chevy NV4500 bellhousings 1992-95- have the housing on the lower passenger side for the external cylinder 1996+ has a large cut-out in the drivers side for the hose for the internal release NOTE: bellhousings are not interchangeable. Case to housing bolt pattern is different. top covers 1992-94 shift lever has the same style retainer as the SM465... round spring locked cam 1995+ shift lever housing is removable. It is square with 4 bolts. This top cover also solved the 3rd synchro failure problem. NOTE: top covers are interchangeable cases (bellhousing removed) 1992-95 input bearing retaining plate has a collar for the throw-out bearing to ride on. Use with external cylinder style bellhousing 1996+ input bearing retaining plate has NO collar for the throw-out bearing. Use with internal style bellhousing One more thing... you shouldn't have an issue with this since your t-case is further back, but when I was mocking the NV4500 up in my 70 (married 205) the driveshaft was VERY close to the boss on the bellhousing for the external cyl. how does yours look? The 3500 and 4500 release cylinder housings are identical.

Re: Ultimate work truck/ 70 K10 diesel
Thanks JB. I'll keep my eyes open. My driveline has about a foot of clearance from the slave cylinder.
