Burb auto questions

[big_truxx]

I know that the 465 is semi rare in burbs. But I have no idea what the burbs run an "average" for autos. What do they run mostly for trans/xfer case combos? I am looking for a 700/208 combo. How common was that in the burbs? Also I would like to know what they run most often so I have an idea of what I may find when looking for my burb project truck. I also need a 400/205 for my 82 but I don't imagine one of those setups would just pop up in the deal of the century project burb I am bound to find. Thanks for your help

For the years you've been saying that you'd like to find (80's) your going to find a 700/208 combo

For real?? That's very good news to me. That would mean 2 parts less I would ahve to source, and possibly less things to part out before the project completion Now I need to figure out the spring perch width on the D70. I am assuming it is the same as the ton version 14ff but I do not know much about all that I really can't wait to have the $$ to get the burb to start on. I'm getting anxious to get my 1st burb

Check THIS out, it for the blazers, but the same combo's came in the burbs along the same years

Cool. So I will either get a 700 or a 350. I don;t have much use for the 350 though. Would the 208 behind the th350 bolt right up to the 700 in the event I end up with what I don;t want?

That I have no idea on as I've never owned a 700 or a 208 lol post up in the garage and ask

not sure of the years but most of the 3/4 tons have the th400/208 or 241 combo and in 91' the 3/4 tons had the 4l80e not sure of the transfer case but probably 241. my 90' 3/4 ton has the th400/241.

Cool. thanks. I will most likely be finding a mid 80's. I believe that's what the deal of the century will be when I find my project burb. I doubt I will find a 90/91 for $500ish. Although the other day I saw a 95 4x4 burb for $650. Could have ben a typo but ya never know.

Just remember, anything newer than 91 (92 - present) the front will be IFS

Yup yup! That's why I saw it and said; "nice deal for someone" and moved on I'm hooked on the mid 80's really nothing but the best for me

my 91 had 700 or what ever it was re named.

my 88 3/4 has 400/208, but will be 465/205 soon well someday

Only some 91 3/4 tons cames with the 4L80E. Only the burbs with the 8600 GVWR had the 4L80E and not the 700. I have yet to see one that didnt have it though so I guess the lighter duty 3/4 tons are rare.
