Gary, There's a cleaner that's used on commerical equipment that works well. Don't know the name of it but its stout and works great on aluminum. We used it on construction equipment and it would remove the oxidized paint layer in about 10 minutes. Might check with a local truck or farm / constructi...

Have a couple of ford script wrenches in the shed.

Picked up a nice Ford script oil can and a naughty nellie from an old man a few years ago.
Kept the nellie and sold the oil can on eBay.

You can get a straight pull that way but get the nuts on a few turns so they dont pull the threads. Sounds tight though and like mentioned heat works wonders. Who knows someone might ha...

515 Holmes wrecker

Picked up this wrecker about a month ago figure on pulling the winchs/booms off and parting out the rest. Should be able to get my money back and have the makings of a handy boom trailer. These winches and booms have a hand crank feature on them or I could set up the winches with a small engine. Wit...

It looked to be a grid of 50 flags set on a well maintained rolling church yard with the sun setting in the background thru thunderheads in the distance. The air was crisp and clean from a cold...

ezer, Hope this makes sense to you my discriptions are kinda funky sometimes. If it feels like the shift lever is in the shift forks correctly try pushing the lever over to reverse and see if it feels springy. My thoughts are it might be in reverse and if it feels solid and a bit short on travel it ...
