What parts are worth saving from a 1984 2WD 5 Speed 720?

I might be picking up a non savable 720 parts truck and I'm wondering what's worth saving for sale or trade? It's not a clean truck at all, but in the pics it looks pretty complete.

I could have the mega sort 5 speed.  If you were local I would buy that.

Cross shafts. These are needed for 620 ball joint swap.

The chunks. Had spider pin come loose in mine, fortunately, I'd bought donor trucks when they came up.

If it's a king cab take a good look at the rubber around the small king cab windows. These are almost impossible to find in good shape.

Passenger side hood ledge (part of inner fender that the battery mounts to) if it's in good shape (they tend to rust badly).

I would strip it for all it's usable hardware. Especially if it's clean. The interior and under dash hardware usually wear their original shine.

 

Wiring grommets, firewall and floor plugs, electrical connectors.

 

Obviously, if you think you'll ever need it, the rear axle and suspension.

 

Steering column and front frame clip - for balljoint conversion on older trucks.

Grab the 5 speed. Your 4 or 5 speed front case can be swapped on making it compatible with your 620.

 

Differential. Probably higher geared which can lower the highway RPMs and be desirable on a 620 that's used for transportation and doesn't harry heavy loads.

 

Backing plates should fit the 620. The 720 backing plates after '81.5 have self adjusting rear brakes.

 

Rear brake drums.

 

Front disc brake calipers, vented rotors and spindle they can be fitted to the 620.

 

Flywheel and clutch is 240mm. Pretty heavy duty for an L20B. Be sure to keep the release bearing collar. It's matched to the pressure plate.

 

Clutch master and slave.

 

Brake master cylinder. Is 15/16" but needs mods to fit a 620 booster. Good to have if swapping the front disc brakes.

 

Turn signal, brake and reverse light bulbs will also fit the 620. Always have spares.

 

If ambitious, your W58 L head will bolt onto the Z24 block making it a 'stroker' L24B. Not only a torque monster but a better breathing head for loads of power above 4k. 

 

Fasteners, nuts, bolts, washers and screws.
