    1976 Canadian 5/4 ton - New acquisition

    I will be leaving it the factory setup. That chain may very well be 40 years old for all I know. Be a good idea to change it. I imagine them breaking can be catastrophic to the casing? Hope new chains are as good as factory ones ....doubt it

    Thanks for the info guys...very good info. Be a good idea to maintain the chain then and it shouldn't be an issue. Chains stretch. It is what it is

    Yeah man. Warner Bros even paid me to display it at the Willy Nelson concert to advertise for the Johnny Knocksville dukes movie. Had a paystub. Made it legit ;)

    People often ask me what I haul in my trucks. I often tell them I haul smiles. Have fun! Life's short

    It's apparently more complicated than that as the TC will not disengage the driveshaft. So it'll still be working most of the stuff, probably won't make a big enough difference to warrant the work. I drive it around the city... mileage - smileage

    Yeah there is a high range or a high loc . ..Neutral..as well as a low range or low loc. That's what the floor shifter does.

    Also fuel milage wasn't a concept at that point yet...maybe a little bit in the civilian world in 76 but definitely not in the military lol. We still used gas deuces at that point ...

    Yeah now you're on board. I dunno! Was that a standard Chevrolet option back then? I know the AWD features were popular concepts

    Canadian MLVW wheels

    I can't see this being a very difficult thing. Even mounting a switch and a separate gauge would be easy so both pumps weren't running together. They're actually a problematic pump and can leave you stranded! Having a backup is always a good idea

    Canadian MLVW wheels

    I believe someone makes a kit that mounts under the floor... it's not a huge job either just separated the front and rears I believe. The main problem is they don't want to spend the money on them and mods probably have to be approved by Bombardier or something dumb like that

    With regards to the extra fuel tank not that I have seen but I'm sure someone here has done it lol. Spare tires I've seen all kinds of clever ideas for.
