Im talking 1/2 ton truck for 1949

Does anyone know the right size rim size for a 49 is it 15 or 16 inch for the spair tire rim ? Can you identify from this pic if one is for a 49. I think 49 has 16 and 51 had 15s anyone know?

Anyone ever find a video for how to install front split winshield glass?

None of feedbacks helped. The person who helped the most in person was rod and paul f. I tried all the b.s. soaking mystery oil brake fluid , tranny fluid, looked like the crank lug was damaged it the pics so couldnt realy find the right size to fit it trying to use a socket to manual crank.also tried a pry bar on the starter hole but wouldnt move. The fly weel looked rusty color compaired to my 49. I also went as far as to pull the truck with another truck on the road and had someone try to shift it in gear. What actually happed it it started to drag when the driver was trying to shift it in gear in motion about 30mph. Eventualy the rear weel fell off due to the lugnuts not being in properly and some missing. The weel went flying then rolling down the road .luckily it didnt hit anthing like a car or person .after that we had to push the truck on 3 weels and put the tire that came off back on. That was the last straw for time and effort i will put into the truck. Luckily some one made me a cash offer that weekend and i jumped on it cosidering its frozen motor that i dont have time for, was missing a raidator and alot of resteration was needed. Still got my 49 and working on it. Im gonna try and sell it for top dolar considering i am in no rush to sell it and it runs. I do appreciate all the resposes people give to help. Its just i didnt have what it takes to get her to live. The buyer is giving it to his daughter for sweet 16 after he fixes it. He has alot more resources then me and deeper pockets to fix it. So it went to a good home and he said he isnt gonna do no chopping. I was hoping someone from this site was gonna step up and take it on but it just sat in the classified section without a single offer. I tried .

I like the look of a tire on the side of a truck .but i think they didnt have that in 49 it was only on the bottom. Has anyone ever goten away with mounting a tire on the side od a 47-51. What years and model dodges did they do that.? What special mounting pieces does it need.?

It's for a truck thats not seized. I ordered it so hoping it goes well.he already shipped same day.

Found a source that might be helpful to everyone has anyone ordered from this person before it looks like he might have what I need I haven't called Power Wagon yet because they're closed. http://www.oldmoparts.com/parts-cooling.aspx

Wel that looks like it. The problem is I dont have ebay. I need to find that persons phone number. Or find a place who has it.it was a helpful reply because he says a part numbe of 1139089.

No the hole is not threaded .I.need the cooling water elbow.

okay I have a water pump that has a fitting on top that's broken. Is it necessary where can I find one does it have a part number. Here are some pictures to describe it. Thanks in advance

I think I have a seased motor. How do I crank it over. It looked like it has been damaged . Does anyone know the Correct way to crank it from the motor. I put in a starter and it wasnt cranking over I think it could be stuck or ill have the starter checked for enough power. Looking at these picks it looks like a socket .i tried 1 1/2 and it didnt work. is it a specialy size socket or am I cranking it wrong. is mine too damaged.??

All your beds look great .does anyone know the exact wood size that wood work( haha I said wood).? Im a just wing it at the hardware store

Im working on a 49 bed1/2 ton. Im guessing the sizes are 8 inches by 78inches by 1/2 inches per x 4 total cut palets. Does anyone know if thats correct id hate to be wrong before I buy wood. Also whats the scoop on type of wood is best. Worker at home depot said redwood termites hate but is it the strongest? What wood did dodge use?

Pic 2. These carbs number cant be found by a normal part store

Ok I found the part number through an ebay search. NFS15021B. Oriles says they have it we will see if they mess up as usual. The pic i I'm attaching is the example of the carburetor that I need is in the middle. The other two have the gas cable hook up on the wrong side. im woundering if I can make a good one out of all three. Or does it need to be the exact carb?

I'm working on a 5 1 dodge 1/2 ton and I can't find it the carb rebuild kit does anybody know where I can get it today? does any of the local parts store have it do you know the part number? I've bought 2 carbs and they are incorrect .the tops where the gas wire goes is on the wrong sideof carburetors it didnt matched like the original that I have so I need to rebuild it . thanks here is a pic of original. Had alot of rust deposits inside. Thanks

Ok I just picked up an other starter the tag says maw 4016

Napa had no other options for switches and im sure the other parts stores dont go back that far. I believe it didnt line up because the starter I have in the pics is a maw 4029 prestolite 42-47 pick up truck. I need a mch6103 or mch6106. And no the hadle of the starter does not line up with the foot petal starter.

Had it welded on . Do you think it'll work? Let me know. Or did I mess up bad by welding??

here's how it looks on the insides.am I missing anyything?

Holes dont match up on the napa st11. Do you think It can still work?

As you as you know I have a 49 and 51 Dodge pickup truck I was trying to find the wires today at Napa Auto Parts and they told me there was a price difference the 49ers more than the 51 the 49 I was quoted at $12o for the wires and the 51 I was quoted $25.00 for and you have to cut and splice th em .is that correct? NaPa part number 700170 for 51 # 69420

I noticed it got closed too I was going to go into detial about the restoration there but I messed up asking for a starter. Is yours for sale or where you just playing around in the garage?
