Shaft removal not uncommon sign of front end gear problems or desire to save gas, absolutely a guzzler. Granny gear is a real tree climber, there is not much you can't move with that.

Really clean body , perfect patina !! a little wet sand and rub it out then a coat of clear satin. That's what I should have done with the kids Nova.

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: SuperNovaSS</div><div class="ubbcode-body">My 72 Short Fleet 4x4 has a 4 speed manual. The first gear is fairly useless for standard driving as it is a non syncroed granny gear. Still fun to drive though.

Jason - what are the particulars on your tranny - kind and manufacturer. Was it original to your truck?

I wish I could tell you. I have just driven it. I could find out but it may be different since mine is a 1/2 ton.

Good stuff guys. Sounds like a decent gear box - tuff, spares available, easy to find parts, not real expensive.

front driveline is most likely out for milage reasons. they were also very wimpy and it didnt take much to twist one up and kill it.

those saddle tanks are very common and ended up in almost all ever made, like Jason says even if you baby it, its like driving muscle, they run through lots of fuel. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif[/img]
