Yes, it is a 3/4 ton. I checked the vin with GM
She has 8 lug spindles on the front. I will need to make a change so as to only require 1 spare tire. I believe the P0 told me the rear end is out of a 95 1/2 ton but not sure. I need to call him. He had it put in at a local driveline shop.

Not going to overhaul the drivetrain at this time. I think it is pretty solid. I am only pulling the engine to clean and paint the compartment and engine. I am thinking very seriously about power steering and AC though.

There is a tank underneith, but I may not use it. It is outside the frame and looks awful dangerous to me. I may just use the cab tank for everyday and fill the auxiliary when I need it.

Thanks to all:
Bruce.
