so I dropped my truck with a DJM kit then cut a coil up front and axle flip in the rear. now i'd like to raise it back up a little since we got a vintage trailer I need to tow with it. i'm in need of stock front springs, rear shackles and rear spring front brackets. i'm in deer park wa. just north o...

you might have a sender wire that has insulation worn and is grounding out letting too much voltage thru the pulse generator. trace all your wires. that's where i'd start.

I have a f250 that i'm turning to a f100 and found this

I haven't bought mine yet, but it is the plan

on my 66 with the stock setup,

disconnect horns under the hood.
push in and turn, i believe counter clockwise, the horn ring and pull towards you.

yes, they were made at custon and commercial wheel in fontana, ca.

if he uses 15" wheels like mine, he won't be able to get the hubcaps off after they snap on. there isn't enough room to remove them. he needs at least 16" or larger.

I have 15x8 steelies with stock drum brakes. they were made at custon and commercial wheel in fontana, ca. got them raw for $94 each. Powder coated white was same price. got them in two days. I have 265/75x15 which is about 31" and a little "short" for freeway driving, but 60mph is fi...

nice, thanks!

thanks guys for the info. i'll look closer at it to figure how that much oil coulda made it into the bellhousing. I had the oil clutch and giant mess too, and am 90% sure it was just the intake causing all the mess. I didn't touch the rear main on mine, far too much work when most folks tell me that...

thanks uncle skip.


dukeroche, yep last saturday night when you were dancin on the table

thanks, so it can be done without pulling the crank? just the cap?

hello, well I just pulled my engine and trans (np 4-speed) to replace the slipping clutch, fix the blown out intake seal (rear) and replace leaki exhaust manifold gaskets. what i found was there was a fair amount of oil in the bell housing area and the disc looked "wet-ish". the whole back...

another question... is there a difference between a f100 c6 trans and a f250 c6 trans? given they both had 360 in front of them and were of, let's say, 1972 vintage.

mike, yep, i'll keep scanning craigs list for a late 60's early 70's truck with an auto then sell the rest. that seems the best way to go about it.

thanks

roger, thanks for that. I thought the 460 was an FE, well I thought all big blocks were FE's. i will look for an earlier one. michelle, thanks for all that. I figured the drive shaft would be altered and a trans cooler added, it was the mount I was unsure of. as far as looking correct, well... I hav...

thanks

here is the add I am looking at...
