Others mention it's an '87. No, I did not take the time to load a huge page. > I'm not looking for comments about it is ugly or things like > that.

The transmission in '87 would be the 700R4 - not a heavy duty transmission from the factory. In '92 the name changed to 4L60. I don't think there was any difference in the transmission from the 1/2 ton up. From the factory. Aftermarket rebuilds can make it a strong, sturdy transmission. I don't know about '87, but in the years prior there was a light and a heavy 3/4 ton. Look at the VGW to see which it is. The suspension on the light 3/4 ton is not much different than the 1/2 ton. The heavy 3/4 ton gets the heavier axle, bigger brakes, etc. > Too me, it looks like it is in great shape and I don't see any > real evidence of rust other than minor surface rust on the > underside. But, am I looking in the wrong place? Rust shows up in the back corners between the bumper and the wheels, the bottom of the doors, rocker panels, front wheel fender aft of the wheel. Factory paint peals off as they had not yet figured out how to use the EPA mandated paint process. Especially bad on the roof. _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
