    I believe 56 and back you're good to go

    Next time the issue happens try pouring water on the fuel pump.

    Thanks look forward to it. I had mine out of the car twice in 2022 trying to seal it up. I replaced the gasket for the input shaft and thoroughly cleaned and resealed the trans to bellhousing.

    Very interesting. Mine is a chronic leaker and seems to leak mostly after it's been run.

    There is a 218 also. Different exact CI than the 23" 218. One is like 217.8 and the other 218.1

    With it now a known issue couldn't someone give their new pump some test spins in a vice? You'd have to keep it oiled somehow

    Try the electric out of the same year dodge or a 51-52 Plymouth

    Classic line! That was my signature on here for quite a while

    I know it gets a bad rap but I feel it does help. Our 66 fury wagon has 252k miles on it and was sold new in Sioux falls SD. Now I don't know the driving habits of all those miles but it's still a solid car at this point.

    The cable attaches to a bracket that shares screws with the solenoid. I thought I had a pic but I looked through 2 of my threads on OD and I'm good at taking pics of the other side of the trans.

    If you just plan to use these as rollers and eventually put the originals back drill holes on them rather than knocking the pins off.

    What all have you tried to remove these bolts? Typically a good impact wrench will buzz them out. Now that you've turned them into studs you need a stud remover that clamps on. I just did a 41 truck engine (technically I haven't verified the engine but it's a 41 chassis) and that one had studs. All of them buzzed right out with maybe 5 pulling the stud itself. For the broken ones welding a nut to the top works way better than drilling

    You nailed it. Found that same item about 10 minutes ago on Amazon. $9

    Thanks I had seen that but it seemed a little odd.

    Got most of the plug remnants out. Need a tap or thread chaser to clean up all 6. Anyone know what size? My 9/16 seems close but not quite right.

    Come spring when we really dig into this thing I might need it!
  17. Young Ed
    What I actually need is a wheel/tire or two
  18. Young Ed
    Or maybe it was really invented by the previous owner of this thing! Or maybe this truck was owned by Zuks grandpa...

    The eyelet appears intact with the added piece welded on. The other side just has the eyelet riding on the bottom of the hanger which is even more sketchy because there isn't much contact patch.

    Technically there is a shackle but it's not connected to anything!! They welded a pad on top of the spring pack to allow it to slide. But nothing would stop it from coming down on slamming back into the hanger on bumps. I'm guessing it was always loaded down with whatever loads they were hauling
  21. Young Ed
    My guess was the shackle bushings wore out and this was their hokey fix. They did take the time to cut the hangers off the frame and bolt them back on ....
  22. Young Ed
    Ok zuk??
  23. Young Ed
    I didn't take one as I'd already tarped over the engine. However it's just the threads left in the head. The rest is completely gone.

    Got a free half a truck this weekend. Guy is frame swapping to a modern chassis. This one has some interesting modifications that I've never seen before. Engine turns over so me and the kids are going to see if it'll run. First challenge is getting the broken plug out. I managed to get the other 5 out without breaking more but they were stuck!! Had to heat and break out a 1/2 drive long ratchet. So any tips on getting that out?
  25. Young Ed
    I would think the best way to really go forward is to source an extra bellhousing. Not sure how hard that is where you are but then you could do all the mockup on the bench and keep your truck whole until ready. For my T5 there really isn't an adapter I just drilled 4 new holes in the existing housing. Not sure if that same method could be used for the 833
