I'm wandering into the Big bolt section, couldn't resist when I saw the thread on the sm420 since I have one in my GMC 3/4 ton.

Check out this site if you haven't already. Several pictures and commentary of sm420 overhaul and 9 page overhaul manual download available under the first picture.

Good luck on your project. I'm sure there are others here who have actually worked on them and will be glad to help.
