what transmission do I get for the 4x4 1988
I have a K1500 with 350 4x4. What is the name(s) of the transmission(s) I need to look for replacing the one I have. I want to shop around for the best prices for the quality. Any info would be appreciated.

ok thanks man, thats the only one I should be looking for? I found one on local craigs list for $325 used.
I think mines about shot, I took it on a 800 mile trip up and down mountains towing a ton or so. now its shifting fine but not disengaging the gear when I come to a stop, causing the truck to stall out when I stop.

Jess,
Save yourself a bunch of greif. On the left side (driver's) of the transmission, there is an electrical plug. Unplug this guy and take 'er for a spin.
If the problem disappears, You've probably just got a bad TC solenoid. Very easy and cheap repair by removing the pan.

Im about to just walk and ride bicycle untill I can afford a new trans mission and install. I called autozone, they quoted me at ~$1500 for the 700r4 trans and torque converter. It comes to ~$2000 with the converter and trans core deposit. I think I can probably get one from a junk yard for $250-$400, but then its the problem of buying someone elses junk with no warrentee. Any suggestions on where else to find one ?

I put a new rotor, distributor cap, plug wires, plugs, new oil, put carborator cleaner on it and in the gas. What'd be next, take it to the shop and have them milk me for a month?

Jess,
It makes absolutely no sense to stand back and just blindly throw parts at your truck hoping that something will "cure" it. All that does is cost you lots of cash on un-needed repairs.
Take it to someone who is competent and can repair it correctly.
I can't hear your truck run, but just from your description can tell you that the problem lies in *EITHER* the EGR system, the fuel pump/regulator or the oxygen sensor.
Let someone work on it who can get into that computer and see what's going on, for goodness sake.
