According to the Shop Manual, it is 10" for 1/2 through 1 1/2 ton for both 6 and V8.

There were lots of options on clutch sizes. You have to measure it to be sure.


They say money can't buy happiness. It can buy old Chevy trucks though. Same thing.

I recently replaced a clutch on what appears to be an original 55-2 with a V-8. It was an 11" unit. I wouldn't buy any parts until I removed it to be sure.
