Having said that, the rear view mirror mount, small rear window and lack of extra screw hole in the doors means it's a lovable mongrel, not a purebred.
KE2 means 71 and down 3/4 ton 4WD.

KE1 means 71 and down 1/2 ton 4WD.

Also look at the model number on the SPID. Shows 3/4 ton.

72 would have been CKE2 for chevy. But, it does look like some numbers are missing on the end of the VIN.
