Stick 4 speed in 6.2 Diesel???

[uglytruk]

I've been croozing eBay for a 6.2 Suburban, and once in a while come accross a 4 on-the-floor, but so far, all 5.7 gas jobs. Here's one http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1,1&item=4610618887&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT. Anybody have a "new vehicle" brochure? Obviously, a 5 speed would be the way to go, like in "new" '92. what about a stick in one of those. Actually, seen a few pick-up, 1/2t, 1 ton dually, gas, diesel, etc, in the independant axle series. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=4601157318&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&rd=1. So only staight axle missing from this picture.

check the home page out.

under spesifcations there are the brochures for every year.

and as far as I think the 6.2 suburban dident come with the 465.

but it doesent meen you cant make it that way.

I just got a 6.2 tourbo diesel for my sub and a 465/205 is the plan for me

Thanks for the tip aboot (Canadian, eh?) the home page/brochure. Tell me more about the 465/205. I always get my transcases mixed up. I have a couple castiron/two stick transcases. They're from late 70's 3/4 ton. Can they be made to work with one lever? I'm sure it's an old question.
6.2 turbo diesel... Banks? I've got a couple. My '86 Sub "had" one, it's now a parts truck. Something blew up last week.

if the t cases are cast then they are eather 203's full time, or 205's part time and all gear tough.

and yeah the torbo is a banks, bought it off a member here, out of his monster crew cab on 53's!!!

I am driving a 12.7L Diesel with a stick shift behind it everyday,,,

oh wait, wrong motor type

 

[cegusman]

ths sm465 manual never was offered behind the 6.2 in the Sub or K5 only the trucks. You have to swap it in yourself like me.

It's a worthwhile swap though...I love a manual tranny behind the 6.2.

So what's the best street combo, as far as transfer cases goes? I want full time AWD, and I have a couple of iron , late 70's tcases. With twisty hubs, I could "turn it off" . This for either 700R4, which I understand one needs to have the output shaft changed. I have that companys adapting shaft (saved in favorites). The 203(?, iron) only came with 3 speed TH350/400. My '87 3/4T has reedikulous 3.73's or 4.10's!
But I have no idea about the late '80's up 5 speed. What tcase does that work with for square body???

If your going to go to all the trouble of swapping a manual behind a 6.2 you might as well go the extra bit and put a 5spd (NV4500) or 6sp (ZF6). I really like the manual but it's missing a gear between 2nd and 3rd as well as that elusive OD

It is a very doable swap
