'84 K30 Silverado "big Dooley"
They're awesome! They kept my truck secure even tho it had absolutely no damn biz bein on that trailer hahaha
This truck was someone's heavily optioned baby on 0ctober 18th 1984 delivered with 20 miles on er!
Midnight blue is my favorite color. Nice.
Sweet truck...in to see what motor swap you go with 
It really may just come down to what donor vehicle drops I'm my lapSweet truck...in to see what motor swap you go with
So a guy on CL just got back to me, 3k for a running 8.1L, Allison 1000 and tcase with all accessories, Radiator and ac stuff... I need more details about mileage and I'm pretty sure the tcase on this transmission is left side drop. I need to find out more details
Tcase will be driver drop. And allisons are 29 spline output tranny's...if you have a 205, ORD sells a 29 spline replacement input for 205's
If it's around 100k miles, that's a pretty good deal as long as regular maintenance was done on the drivetrain
It has 197000 on it but he sent video of it running and since I don't need the tcase 2500. So if I get an Ord 29 and an adapter from precision fabrication plus, this may be an option?
we have a 09 chevy 5500 rollback at work with just under 300k miles with the 8.1 and Allison .
motor is strong as a ox and no major work done yet . trans just went out and got a new jasper reman unit .
this truck gets run 6 days a week and when ever the phone rings she goes .
there a good combo .

Just bought a donor vehicle! 2001 8.1/ally 5 spd! Parting the rest out
Not a duramax.. but I suppose a big block is just as cool.
Also those transfercases behind the Allison can go for a lot...should pay for the ORD kit and a 205
Well I have a 205 in my truck now but I didn't know Ord made a conversion?
OK its for the round pattern np205. I'm pretty sure my tcase has a figure 8 pattern which it shouldn't have being a '84 but maybe bc it's an original 6.2 diesel? Not sure really but it is behind a th400 which I thought is a round pattern. I have to look at it tomorrow
84 older are fig 8 .
85 up are round 6 .
but being 84 ya never know . look and verify . . . dont ASSume what it is .

Awesome donor!!! 
Yea I'm pretty sure it's an 8 I have to find out if I can just use a round to 8 adapter. Precision fabrication plus has all of them but a quick add up of the parts list is gonna be close to 1200 in parts

Definitely a good score! He was gonna pull the engine n trans but I talked him into 500 more for the entire truck! Good thing it's 20 degrees out n he didn't want to do the work

That's how to get a good deal on a parts truck....go when its cold out. I`ve done that! Wish you where close to me, I see lots of good front end parts for my 02.
