Please help 1983 GMC 2500

[John Connor]

My dad is looking for a schematic of the front axle hub assembly for a 1983 GMC 4x4 2500. I looked in Google and couldn't find anything. If you need more info. let me know. Time is of the essence.

Go to the auto parts store and buy a shop manual.

Its in the haynes manual. I would scan it for you but my manual is with my truck which is parked 100kms from my house.

The manual only cost me $10 though its worth investing in one.

My dad is a cheap ass, he won't buy one. He has a manual, but it's not for the '83. If anyone scans the manual that would be great.

I've got a feeling that Kyle Reese is just trying to stay off of the grid.

 

[John Connor]

LOL! No electronic junk in a '83 I don't think.

I think Auto Zone will have those diagrams if you register.

I created an account and didn't see any diagrams.

That look like it?

 

[LTC8K6]

The diagrams are def there in the repair guides and when you select a part.

 

[John Connor]

I'll ask my dad if that's it. It looks like it. Is that for an '83 GMC sierra?

Well I asked my dad if that was the correct diagram and he said the diagram was part time not full time. I have no idea what that means. He needs the full time diagram. I guess there's less parts?

 

[phucheneh]

I'm not really a 4WD guy, but, uh, wouldn't full-time indicate that there is no unlocking of the hubs? Thus they should be pretty damned simple?

 

[John Connor]

I have no idea. All I know is that he said the truck was full time.

 

[LTC8K6]

Didn't know there was such a thing for those trucks. I'll see what other diagrams AZ has.

 

[LTC8K6]

I'm going to guess that he means the auto hubs rather than the manual hubs? The other pic was the manual locking hubs. Here is the free wheeling auto locking hubs.

That might be it. I recognize the washer. I'll ask him tonight. Right now we've had snow so there's not much auto repair work you can do outside.

 

[John Connor]

My dad said that was it. Thanks very much for your help!
