1/2 Ton PU 1970

[WarlordX]

I have a couple questions, i went and checked out what i was told was a 1970 3/4 ton PU but im pretty sure was actually a 1/2 shorted from all ive read and saw. (it also said 1110 on it) "All Wheel Drive"

Lug pattern was 5, not 8. Axles I believe were both d44's but the back could have been a d60... what is the easiest way to tell? Ive heard they have the same shape cove but is larger on the d60. Are there tubes both 2.75"? or is the 60 3"? It had a 3 speed automatic, but didn't look too much like the 727..

Also there was a gas leak somewhere near the carb base TO intake manifold. What are common problems for this? Most likely a just carb gasket? And what all should i be looking for problem wise when i go back and check it out?


EDIT : It also has a divorced transfer case, and im not sure what Trans or X fer but it did have a 345

the transmission should be a borg-warner

The 1110 started in mid 71, but there was also an 1100B made that year for a short time. The t-case is an NP205 if it is a 2 speed. The rear axle could be a D60 or a D44. They were both offered in the tow package, and the 44 had a limited slip. Without the tow package, it could have been open or limited slip.

Available engines were 304, 345, and 392 on the 1110 models. This was right at the switchover from non-IC to IC 392 engines, and I have seen both. Automatic would be a BW-12, and the 4 speed would be a T98, also a BW. This changed in pickup trucks in 73 to the 727 for automatics, 74 to the T19 (close or wide available) for manuals.

5 lug wheels indicate half ton. The 3/4 ton model is a 1210 with 8 lug wheels, ford or dodge pattern, 8 on 6.5.
