Cougar281 05-05-2004, 10:17 PM My '04 Chevy was built 4/04, and I have heard it said that the newer Allisons do not have the PTO gear. How can I tell if my Allison has a PTO gear? It would be nice if it has it so if I ever wanted to, I could get that generator that runs off the PTO. Mike L. 05-05-2004, 10:40 PM You have it. Don't believe it? pull either side cover off the Ally and see if ther is a big ugly gear staring you in the face. Next model year may make it an option (they need money). mike Mackin 05-05-2004, 10:41 PM Take the PTO Cover off on the side .... If you dont see gear teeth around the rotating assembly you no gots ... You might want to get a gasket first ...

I do remember reading on this and believe it would only work on 3500 HD trucks, and larger which is a different frame chassis set up that allows the space between the floor board and PTO location. Fran Cougar281 05-06-2004, 06:54 AM The generator I'm regering to is designed to fit on out trucks with no clearance issues. http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=7667&KW=generator I believe we do have it, but with our series trucks it can't be utilized due to clearance issues.

Fran 04wanabemax 05-07-2004, 05:40 AM That's a slick looking unit especially for the cost.This would seem to be great for running a camp or building a home..... or???? I like they way the created the small gear set to power the drive shaft to get around the clearance issue. This truely appears to be a very solid unit, it certainly has my wheels turning.
