Front cap removal
Hey everyone, I am starting the planning for the CV front end suspension surgery. I just have an odd question, Can you take the front cap off as one piece? This is my first slick that I have gone beyond the minor repair with and I'm just not sure if it will come off all together or do you have to sp...

The whole (engine) electrical system from the battery all the way to the spark plug wires are less than two years old. I checked under the dizzy cap and everything looked fine, the coil looks good, and I checked my voltages going to the brain box. The bazaar thing is that it only fires when you rele...

Thanks for the info guys. I am planning the cross member swap. It seems to be the best way to go. Fanatic, great picture. It's been awhile since I was behind the wheel of the truck I completely forgot about the column being off center. That's number 2 on stuff I can't stand with a truck No 1 being t...

Raising the Steering column?
I was wondering if you anyone has ever changed the angle that the steering column goes through the floor. I love these old trucks but I hate having the steering column between my feet. At times I feel like I am driving one of the original T's where the steering column is straight up and down. I am p...

Wiring Diagrams
Hey guys, I have a 351w in my truck and got tired of playing with the points and dropped in a stock electronic distributer and brain box. The truck was running fine but due to an unforseen medical issue the truck has sat without being cranked for over a year. Now I can't get it to crank. I don't thi...

Thanks for the info guys. By the way I thought you guys would like to hear that I gave the bug to my uncle and it bit him, he bought a 61 Uni the other day. The body is a bit rougher than mine but I will give him a big thumb up because it already has a 460 planted between the rails. I imagine once h...
