Parting out '87 GMC 1 ton

GetMore · May 13, 2006

I've got a 1987 GMC V-3500. It was a work truck, so it has been used hard on occasion.

454 TBI, TH-400, 14 bolt, single rear wheel, Fisher 8' plow.

I don't know offhand which front axle or transfer case. I'm not sure how to tell, but the axle is either a Dana 44 or 60, and the t-case is probably the NP-205.

Mileage unknown, definitely over 100,000.

The body is rotting, the fuel tank leaks. (It had two tanks, but one has been removed-the switch and valve is still there.)

Truck ran well, got about 7 mpg, which I was told was typical.

It has many new parts on it, but has been sitting, so I'm going to call them newer. ;) Radiator, water pump, front rotors, calipers and pads, P/S pump, Hydroboost unit, cap and rotor, wires and plugs.

The rear weight-referencing proportioning valve still moved.

The bed is in decent shape.

Tires are BFG T/A All Terrain, lots of tread left.

Truck is located in Bethel, CT right now. (My friend's place-he was going to take the drivetrain, but he's got a Ramcharger now.)

I'd like to arrange things so I can pull the thing apart and get rid of the parts all around the same time.
