****SOLD****

I'm selling the 700r4 and NP241 that I've been running for around 10 years. They were just recently removed from the crew cab in favor of a 4L80e and Magnum. Still working great, just didn't think the 700r4 was going to last long behind a 454 in an 8000lbs truck towing a 4000lbs camper.

The transmission was purchased from another members 1990 K5 part out in around 2008. It has a Transgo shift kit. It started out in my K5 behind a carb'd motor and then in the crew cab with a TBI for a standard transmission, so it has never had a computer to control the lockup torque converter. It has a kit installed from TCI that uses vacuum to signal the torque converter to lock up or you can wiring to a manual switch. Personally I've always used the manual switch. It also has a Hughes Tow Master torque converter. It has always been run with a big stack-plate cooler so I don't think it's hardly ever seen temps above 200°. Never had a lick of trouble with it. I did have to cut off the are at the top bolt of the dust cover to clear the headers I'm running.

The NP241 transfer case also came from a member here in about 2009. It was in an 89 K5. It has a mechanical speedo. Before I installed it in the K5 I installed the JB Conversions SYE. It also has a DIY4x clocking ring that I've always run 2" clocked up, not full-flat. Currently it has a flange, bracket, and rotor installed for a driveline brake. I never finished setting it up, but the caliper will be included along with a 1410 yoke if you'd rather not run the flange setup. I always shifted this with a JB Custom Fab cable shifter so that will come with it too. You can see the bracket I made for it in the pictures. The cable shifter also uses a different lever on the case and I've long since lost the factory lever.

I have no idea what kind of mileage was on these before I purchased them. The 700r4 looked like it may have been rebuilt, but no guarantee. Obviously some of the internals in the NP241 were replaced for the SYE, but only the parts needed for the conversion. I would guess I've probably put around 20,000 miles on them between the K5 and crew cab.

****SOLD**** I would like $400 for everything with local pick up only. I could probably arrange to meet somewhere within an hour drive of Evans, CO as well.

****SOLD**** I am willing to separate. The 700r4 would be $150 and I'm not willing to ship that. I am willing to ship the NP241 for $300 +shipping. I have shipped them before putting them in Rubbermaid totes and using FedEx. I'm guessing it will cost around $100 to ship.

I would also sell the driveline e-brake kit separately for $100 plus shipping.

Thanks for looking.

If it doesn't include the driveline brake, I'm in line for that.
It doesn't have to. I will keep you in mind if things fall thru.

On that note, how happy were you with the e brake setup? Always held? No issues?
I never got the caliper mounted. I was a little stumped by how I was going to mount an actuating mechanism. It would have helped if I could find pictures of what some others had done, but there's not a lot out there.

I believe the setup I have is the same and I can say it holds fine.
Not as stable as the drums because any play in the drivetrain is transmitted to the brakes so with it on, you can rock the truck back and forth a few inches.
 
What kind of 241 shifter is that?
 
I was using a cable shift from JB Custom Fab.
