C6P Option


Recommended Posts

Well...GM has a date range of 1985-2027 for RPO code C6P...lol...

 

1989 appears to be the first year C6P 2500 trucks were offered. https://gmheritagecenter.com/docs/gm-heritage-archive/vehicle-information-kits/Chevrolet-Trucks/1989-Chevrolet-Truck.pdf

 

Starting on page 5 in that ol' breakdown, you can see on C2500 and K2500 the option for both 7200 and 8600 GVWR ranges. I checked the 1988 info package and they had only 7200 GVWR 2500 trucks that year. 2500 trucks for 1988 were 8600 GVWR.

 

Another note to add. C/K 3500 SRW trucks from 1988-1990 were 8600 GVWR. 1991 they apparently didn't offer a 3500 SRW, only DRW. 1992 they brought the SRW 3500 back with the 9000 GVWR for C trucks and 9200 GVWR for K trucks. Come GMT-800, the 9200 GVWR 1 ton evolved to the 2001 release of the 2500HD.

1992. https://gmheritagecenter.com/docs/gm-heritage-archive/vehicle-information-kits/Chevrolet-Trucks/1992-Chevrolet-Truck.pdf

 

Page 9. Cheyenne, Scottsdale and Silverado trims. Both C6P and 1 ton SRW trucks got them. From looking further on page 23, a C6P 2500 had the 9.5" semi float, while the SRW 1 ton ran the 10.5" full float.

I surfed around to a couple of other model years, interesting stuff. Some of the '82 info looked familiar as my father had brought home some similar info before I ordered my '82.

 

The info confirmed what I thought about the tire codes

X - front

Y - rear

Z - spare

 

These prefixes were followed by a 2 letter tire code.

Nice! Built in Oshawa Ontario. My father was working there at the time. I didn't start my 1st stint there as a tool & die maker until the following March.
