If you got multiple vehicles, isn't an old beater truck just for occational trips to the dump, store, wood lot, garage, gas station. I mean gosh thats 5 trips right there. Its old, like me, It probably need a b...

I have looked all over the yards locally, Most have the mid 70's and newer trucks. Those rears are no where near this as to what I have seen. These little buggers so far have evaded me. Around here, I have not seen to many f250 slicks. I guess since it was such a work horse in the 60's it found its ...

I just need 3 of the cone washers. With all the pieces and parts you guys have, Did you happen to keep these little it...

filler pipe and gas cap for a 1966 f250

Do you know where I can get a filler pipe and cap for my 66? It looks like someone used pliers on it, The cap is a pos locking one that does not seal and the inside of the pipe is all bent up as well. I would appreciate any ideas. By the way I am near Richmond Va, if you happen to be close by. Thanks

OK now you have me curious. I have a 66 f250 2wd. Is there a difference in the front and rear hubs on a 65 vs 66. I have not run across any wheel I had to modify to fit. I figure it doesn't fit for a reason therefore don't use it. Ifyou use the proper lug nuts, there should not be a issue.

any ford f250 wheel up to about 1995 will fit. I forget the actual year ford went metric. Also most any Dodge 2500 wheel will fit.

take a pair of expandable jaw pliers put some tape over the jaws, grab the arm between the spline shaft and the flex point, put slight twisting pressure with your wrist and lift the arm off the spline.

media blasting the frame (truck)

I have looked at the pictures at some of what y'all have done. AMAZING!!! I may never get that far but I am curious as to how far down you took the truck and or frame before blasting and what the cost was. Did you remove the cab and bed, strip the frame of lines and attachments etc.? What about all ...

Thanks for everyone's vote of confidence about the price. It confirms what I thought that it was a good deal. By no means is it a perfect condition back of the barn find, But it is not bad.

Yep. Positive it is in ark position. The motor pivot stops in the exact same spot everytime which causes the pivot point to be about horizontal with the dash and having the linkage mount point toward the drivers side of the truck. I have also discovered the black box that is the wiper delay and when...

Mylinkage is not even under the dash. I have a silver one and a darkened almost anondized color one, which I quess would equate to the black.
