Oh yeah? I'll make an inquiry. Same truck ,same color,same condition,V8,4speed,205,14 bolt, K30 spec but 44 frt(?).
K30 should have a 60 front
K20 may have had a 44, not sure

*edit
Until 77, both 3/4 and 1 ton used a d44. In late 77, they started using a d60 in the k30
In 78, the k20 started using a corporate 10 bolt

That would explain things it's a '77. It's stickered as a K20 . The only thing k20 is that 44 front.

Yep but I've never had one older than 76

Had several 67-72
Have a short bed 70 now
Am looking for a 71 or 72 2wd 1/2 ton so can get 5 lug wheels and disk brakes ,wife wants one ,i get lots of 73-87 trucks through here but the early ones are drying up ,sold a 90 blazer last year had that tbi engine with square body ,you would hate to see how many rust free trucks i have crunched up in the last 30 years

87 is very hard to find,still the old square body but the first year of fuel injection.

I know. Parts were odd also. I almost never found a receiver hitch for it. When I swapped to the 400 I re-drilled the intake so the fuel injection would work. The computer wasn't a fan of the cam I put in it ( at idle). On the top end she ran like a scalded dog.

I had a 1980 k30. Still had the round fenders. Everything else went square in 79. 60 front, 350/400t, cast iron tcase, 70 rear. The only thing breaking on that truck was it's heart, from all the rust

Tough as that K20 was my four door W200 would drag it around like a rag doll.

Beat up old 372, bent handle, beat up clutch cover, cracked top cover, stripped screw holes for inside dawg so only run outer, cracked rear handle, beat up oil cap. But has a new tweaked 52mm big bore with a farmer jones mod. My favorite all around felling/firewood saw as it has a very wide powerband and light weight. image.jpeg
