Nice find. I loved my 1989 Chevy 2500 with an 8' Fisher Speed Cast. That truck will make you a great plow truck. The transmission should be a 400.

Nice find! My most favorite plow truck to date was my 89 chevy 2500. Only trouble I had with it was the cv u-joints.

Are you sue it's a 3500 cause from 88 to 91 a k3500 or suburban and blazer still had solid front axles and the body style of 80 to 87 1/2 tons ?

Yes its a K3500... I even have the build sheet... but in reality its the same ratings as a modern day 3/4 ton pickup.
