Looking at my Looking at my 40-47 dodge Fargo book it looks like the numbers are a different system. The 1940 is a DB 41s a DC and then 42-47 is a DD. So I believe a DG would be the next model run after a DF. These 41-47s don't have a -26 model but there is a -20 which is a one ton with a 120" wheelbase and then a -33 with 133" wheelbase.

Lots of scrubbing with basic soap and a not got the major staining off. It still needs a good polish and wax though
-
It's a picture of a book. What are you trying to share?

For my 47 with Dakota bench seat I was able to take the Dakota brackets and then them backwards. That fixed the angle problem but now my adjuster lever is on the pass side facing the rear cab wall!

You probably wouldn't be the first guy to buy a 20' length and cut it in the parking lot.

Dad had an international scout with a bad tank. He drove it all around with a boat tank in the bed. It had a homemade wood bed to I think that would have negated the static issue.

Back years ago there was a guy on here that swapped more modern drum brakes onto his stock axle. -
1939 Plymouth Pickup Engine and Transmission
Young Ed replied to jim6346's topic in Mopar Flathead Truck Forum
We need to know what you currently have. The engine from the 39 will fit but as the others said you need a proper truck bell housing and transmission -
Take a look at the bottom of your seat brackets. Some of them have 2 sets of holes and you can move them back a little.

New pump and oil/filter should be good

There are a lot of 39-47 truck owners that would love to get their hands on their rear fenders!
-
I'd bet when they started they had to pick something that was in the sweet spot of modern but old enough to be hitting the junkyards.
-
Well I am very surprised most of it is coming off just with soap and a scrubby mit. Then I'll be doing a cleaner wax and calling it good
-
Just bringing Dad's 66 wagon out from storage and at some point it got lead stains on the hood and roof. I'll give it a standard washing first of course but I'm quite sure that won't get it all off. So what's next? Clay bar? Polish? Buffing compound?
-
Yes that's true. In a perfect world the bolts are good and can stay in place while the flywheel comes off to get fixed
-
Why are we pulling the oil pan to remove the flywheel?
-
39-47 trucks didn't get an access hole for the sending unit in until 47. My 46 doesn't have one but the 47 does
-
There is a little slot in the bottom of the knob. A small screwdriver in there will release the clip from the switch. Then you can unscrew the bezel and the switch will drop out the back.

Doesn't everyone have a spare hanging on the wall???
-
For sure. He spoke just as passionately when he was speaking at our meeting.
-
He comes in at about 8min wearing a maroonish striped shirt with the car to his right

Wagon trip. It's only a few posts down from the top.
-
Not really a friend but I did meet him a few times. I believe he's moved out of MN now. He talks all about his families experiences in that video
-
Yes that was Mark - he's on that hagerty video too. Check the off topic area where I just took a trip to Michigan and saw one in person at the gilmore museum

Removal of back of front seat ash tray trim, P-20
Young Ed replied to 50PlymP-20's topic in P15-D24 Forum
It's been probably 20y since I messed with those on dad's 50 but I believe they were held in place by pins on the item and those little one way clips
