lugnut123 Posted February 24, 2012 Report Posted February 24, 2012 are you in el paso?? What do you want for that flatty engine? Is it a 23 inch block? Quote
52DodgeB3B Posted February 24, 2012 Author Report Posted February 24, 2012 are you in el paso?? What do you want for that flatty engine? Is it a 23 inch block? Yes I am in El Paso and am not sure how to verify that it is 23" block maybe you can help me. Quote
HanksB3B Posted February 24, 2012 Report Posted February 24, 2012 (edited) Sorry I couldn't be of more help, it's just a virtual world these days. You could send me a plane ticket, I'll bring my tape and we can measure the length of the engine block together. There's a real nice restaraunt just over the New Mexico border in Las Cruses I wouldn't mind going back to, or the Cattleman ain't half bad either! Heck I'll even buy lunch.

lugnut123 Posted February 25, 2012 Report Posted February 25, 2012 You just measure the block/ head front to back. It will be a 23 or 25 inch. The 25's were in ton and a half trucks and up. did the engine come out of A half ton? has the block been over hauled or was it stock? thanks sorry I didn't get back to you sooner. Quote
52DodgeB3B Posted February 25, 2012 Author Report Posted February 25, 2012 it is a 23 then i will measure it tomorrow just to double check and Hank your right cattlemens is delicious:) Quote
lugnut123 Posted February 25, 2012 Report Posted February 25, 2012 is the cattlemans in las cruces?? Sounds good. What do you want for that moter?? Quote
HanksB3B Posted February 25, 2012 Report Posted February 25, 2012 is somewhere outside of El Paso. You know how City Slickers are about directions especially in the desert. Over yonder past the giant cactus and three fences past that clump of tumbleweeds. I was on a business trip and the night I was there our host arranged for my one and only hayride and had Louis Lamour tell the story of Wyatt Earp around a campfire. I don't know which was better the story from a famous author, the steak or the baked beans. Hank Quote
Dave72dt Posted February 25, 2012 Report Posted February 25, 2012 Participated in countless hayrides. All involved loading and unloading hay or straw, hot temps and sweat. No campfire, no famous author. just home grown vegetables and meat, the evening news with Walter Cronkite followed by the local news and weather. Quote

lugnut123 Posted February 25, 2012 Report Posted February 25, 2012 I moved plenty of that hay by hand. That;s why I bought me a new holland bale wagon. just takes all the fun out of it. Quote

tonkaman Posted March 4, 2012 Report Posted March 4, 2012 im looking for a good radiator that would fit in a ton and half as mine has a bullet hole in it...... not sure if yours would fit mine, anyone know? Quote
David A. Posted March 6, 2012 Report Posted March 6, 2012 Hi, I need the left and right splash shields located behind the front tires. I also need a pair of rear brake drums if they are available. Thank you, David A. Quote

texas275 Posted March 7, 2012 Report Posted March 7, 2012 Is the radiator available? If so how much? Quote
52DodgeB3B Posted March 8, 2012 Author Report Posted March 8, 2012 Is the radiator available? If so how much? No sorry I need it to put the body on the Dakota. And there is no point in fixing what aint broke Quote
David A. Posted March 8, 2012 Report Posted March 8, 2012 Not sure yet if I am going to need the splash guards but the brakes are there. My email address is d.a.anderson1@juno.com. Please email me and let me know what you want for the rear brake drums. I might be interested in the brake backing plates also. Quote
Charles Furman Posted March 9, 2012 Report Posted March 9, 2012 This looks like a 48 or 49 1/2 ton - 1 ton truck? If so, can you tell if the steering has play in it or is it tight? If it seems pretty tight, I would be interested in talking to you about the steering box and column. Quote

If it seems pretty tight, I would be interested in talking to you about the steering box and column. its a 52 1/2 ton and the steering box was tight. I was driving this around a couple weeks ago.

HanksB3B Posted March 9, 2012 Report Posted March 9, 2012 I believe I read somewhere that the steering box from the 48-50 series is different than the steering box for the 51-53 series. Just saying, Hank Quote
