Thanks no i am 12 volts but someone said you can run 6 volt on 12

Where can I a starter like that and will it fit my 48 dodge truck i want to do away with floor start?

Yeah a little more than I wanta pay for one I seen that one thanks

You would think the one for my truck would be rare

I had a truck had a radio in a 52 cab but it was not the right one some chopped the dash up to fit it I am wanting a 802 602 something fit my 48 so I can convert it to fm

Wow they must be hard to find

I also use truck bedliner I used it on my firewall and under the cab works well you may want to spray that rust converison stuff under it first than bed line it.

I have a friend I think needs a 610t his truck is a 52 model he is on here name is Robert Thornton

Hey Guys, I am looking for a 602 805 or whatever will fit my 1948 dodge truck doesn't have to work something low price if any one has one please let me know Thanks for any help Jason

I thought about that and I need to do some checking on that thought about changing the back set on the wheels and dishing them in best i can meausure looks like the wheels will be even at the top of the front fenders.

Thanks for the help I am gonna give it a try and when I get started on the project I will post some pics and info. Jason

Hey Guys, Has anyone done a full size dodge truck frame swap? I am looking at buying a dodge truck a 82 model long bed with a 318 and auto trans, I know I will have to shorten the frame, I have a 49 dodge B truck cab and a 53 bed so wanted to do a custom truck with power stearing brakes and ect. and the good thing is the 82 runs and he wants $350.00 for it. Thanks for any help. Jason

I didn't know they were that hard to find I got one off a 52 dodge That I am gonna use it has the flat place on the center bar and the mirror has a nut that holds it to the bar is that the stock one? Jason

Thanks for the info, I was wondering how good they are, I am only 26 years old so just wanting to learn something new the truck, I am doing all the work myself with the help of you guys, I am working on is a 48 dodge cab on a 53 dodge frame with 53 dodge bed so kind of a mix and match so I did not know if I needed to cut new set of holes in my cab to use the 53 elect. wipers or stay with the old vacuum wipers? Right now I am working on the cab got it soild agian as the floor boards where gone and door post, I use 53 cab as a donor because it was rolled so lots of good lower cab parts, I made the front floor panels and have the frame, engine and tranny ready to go just doing body work thought be good time for elec. wiper converison. PS will try to get pics up soon of my truck guys Jason

Hey Guys, I got a question for yall I have a 48 cab with the vac. wipers how good are they? Will it be worth my time to use the newer electric ones, I have the newer electic wipers for a 53 truck and the arms.

Well in that case that could be a little harder lol

Sorry I should of told yall I am use newer alum. wheels that does not have the extra set of holes to clear the revits thats what the wheel spacers are doing the wheel spacers have 10 holes in them so the revits heads will clear. just wanted to let you guys know that are using newer wheels. Jason

Whip out the old chain saw, If it was around here I would be attemped lol

Hey Guys, I just wanted you to know in case no one has thought of it, I changed my wheel bolts to studs 1/2" x 20 on my old dodge b2b and noticed that the rivets that hold the drum on hit the back of the wheels, found out that 5/16 wheel spacers take care of that so you don't have to drill the back of your wheels out. I first thought of cutting the studs and making it like a newer drum but I don't think its a good idea, I just wanted to let you guys know. Jason

Hey Guys, Anyone got a printable guage face for a 49 dodge truck speedometer, I already printed and fixed the other gauges. Thanks for the info. Jason

Thanks Merle, I looked at the transmission the plug is straight back in it. I think everything will work with the 4 speed swap, but not sure if I am gonna have to have the drive shaft cut down, because the 4 speed appears to be about 2 inches longer than the 3 speed and the drive line thats in the 4 speed truck is 116 wheel base. Thanks agian Jason
