What type of transmission is in a 85 chevy c10 shortbed truck?

A 1985 Chevy C10 shortbed could have several different transmissions, depending on the engine and options selected by the original buyer. The most common would be:

* 3-speed automatic (TH350): This was a very popular choice for light-duty trucks of that era.

* 4-speed manual (SM465): Also a common option, particularly with larger engines or for those who wanted more control.

* 5-speed manual (NV350): Less common than the 3-speed automatic or 4-speed manual, but still possible.

To know for sure what transmission is in *your* specific truck, you need to check:

* The build sheet (if you have it): This will list the exact specifications of your truck.

* The VIN number: A dealer or online VIN decoder might be able to provide transmission information.

* The transmission itself: Look for markings on the transmission case; this usually identifies the type.

Without more information about your specific truck, it's impossible to say definitively which transmission it has.
