For those of you that have done the 12v conversion, what alternator/generator and brackets did you use to make it work?

So i have searched around but i can't seem to find the information i need. 1) I have a 53 P24 that i have converted 12v -ground but I believe my starter finally went out, so I was curious what 12v starter fits/works the best? 2) I somehow snapped my front sway bar and I have read we can use one off a Jeep, but I am not sure what years or models we can use. 3) For those that have done the front disk brake conversion, did you use a different master cylinder? if so witch one? Thanks everyone :-) Martin

most i have done is saved it from a field and eventually getting crushed, got her running and won some project and under construction trophys.

Awesome! Thanks Tim!

no Truck Pro's in CA

the only availability i can find is truck shops and they have to order them at $15-$20 a pop :-/

i went to the Baldwin website and they say to use a P73 style for my 53...anyone know about these and if they are better or same as JC405?

what can swap over from my 218? also i am told this 230 came out of a Plymouth with Hy-Drive, will i have to add a Hy-Drive trans to make it work or can i use the 230 with my stock 3-speed?

did you replace the balencer/damper? cause if so where did you find one? i have been looking for a while but i can't find the same style we have

it's a beautiful day to work on my 53 and take it for some test drives

looks and sounds good, i still need to decide what manifold i want you to build for me

Congrats, i hope to be driving mine soon as well

Here is my work in progress

i mean everything to re-build a motor, pistons, valves, timing chain, cam etc.. i can re-build it myself i was just lookin to see if there was a kit i could find cheaper than $1,200
