K20's and K30's offered as Silverados?

[Ben B.]

The title says it all...could you get a 3/4 or 1 ton longbed with the silverado package, or was it limited to 1/2 ton trucks?

 

[Muddytazz]

It wasn't just limited to 1/2tons, all 3 tons had that package

 

[Ben B.]

K, thanks.

Now would a 78-79 3/4 have an HD 8 lug 10 bolt or dana 44 front end?
And did K30's all come with D60's and 14 bolts?

Wasn't that package called "cheyenne" until 80 or so? My 82 is a silverado.

I had an 80 2x4 silverado 3+3 in high school and it was 3/4 ton.

I've seen Silverado optioned trucks as just about every kind... 4x4, 2wd, 1/2 ton- 3/4 ton- 1 ton etc...

I've had or seen Custom Deluxe models, Scottsdales, Silverados, Cheyennes, Bonanzas...

GMC had their own lines... Sierra, High Sierra, Sierra Grande, Sierra Classic.

If that has a diesel that is exactly what I want for my towrig.

Nice ride

Thanks. Right now it has a 454tbi/SM465 but next spring/summer (whenever it gets warm enought to ride the motorcycle to work) it will have a Cummins/NV5600 6 speed.

Check out my profile and go to my webshots page. You will see my '85 K30 on there and its all pure Silverado, too.
