Definitely need to know the year.
Nate, All of the neoprene seal kits I know of are for the 235's, maybe 55 and up. There was a place called Beck's Machine and Tool in Santa...
Did something wrong it didn't move the picture---back to the book.
First time to give it a tryhttp://s32.photobucket.com/user/coilover/media/StudeJustins40CougarCat004-1.jpg.html
I see where ad-engineering.com has an updated kit that says you can do an AD/S10 frame swap IN ONE DAY. I'd figure on a long weekend.
Ron, Here's what I do on somewhat rare rides and there are way more 48 and newer AD's than 47's. Go down to a bookstore and buy a Hemmings Motor...
I also would wonder about if and how much hardener was used. Some tanker trucks haul other liquids besides gasoline but with what little bit of...
Google "shock absorber specs" and Monroe has 82 pages of lengths, compressed, and end style data.
That kit doesn't have any saddles to weld to the axle tubes, just the U-bolts and plates. Most trailer manufacturing places have saddles for...
Steve, your cousins story is repeated eight times in our shop right now---work promised but not done. If one doesn't give ANY money up front then...

My old 2001 computer is getting so cranky I think I had better get the pictures stored in it to a better place. I put about 100 out of a total of...
10 bucks says my forklift can beat yours.
Andy, Been spying some on the HAMB and like what I see. If the cleare Andy,...
Had never thought of using a bushing in a tube for an engine mount but it is very compact and universal. Yours looks like it might be a urethane...
You didn't mention what year the truck is so there are a couple of rear mount options. The front two bolts are 1/2" in oversize holes so some...
Nice going, Andy. You no longer need to call it a 30-31 since the recess in the firewall where the fuel line and valve is makes it a LATE 31...
GM uses about 1100 psi vs Fords 850 psi but $20 will buy you a reducer from Speedway to use a GM pump on a Ford r&p. Without the reducer you will...
Man, that is A LOT easier than what we have done for years. Rather than pull out the input shaft I made a cradle to fit on the bed of the big old...
Separate names with a comma.
