No parts trading or selling on the open forum.

The post that prompted the note was deleted. It was a direct ask for a part to sell or trade. Thus against da rulz.

No parts requests on the open forum. Dems Da Rulz!

Yah sounds like a valve tick...FEF has one but its minor so I live with it.

I first heard these called "sex bolts"

What he said!

You have 3 (lucky). As stated get #1 running and see where you wanna go. I'm guessing at a minimum you will end up with a powertrain swap out....likely frame as well. These bad boys weren't made for speed or comfort really.

Remember Parts requests and offers should be kept to PM or the classifieds section.

I removed the rivet and got a bag of them to get the 2 I needed.....

On my modern when I replace seals on the spindles/hubs I use a block of wood and a dead blow to seat new seals. Been doing that and it's been working for 18+ years.

BEEFY!

thanks Several issues will have to be dealt with. I had doors on when welding up the the rear half of the cab to the front to keep the body line straight, so that is good. The REAL issue is that standard cabs fall back at the rear of the door, extending the cab I had to widen it in the rear 6" to keep the roof lines happy. This means I will have to flay out the bottom lower corner of the front doors (2"or so) to get them to line up nice. Of course I will have to completely build the rear suicide doors from basically scratch for the skins. And of course the constant battle in my head for the top intersection of the front and rear doors: square it off or keep the curves.

any beads or stiffeners planned on the floor?

Please keep requests for parts, manuals, etc. from members to the classifieds section or PM
