    One thing led to another

    So i tried to get away with an easy fix on the radiator...... I ended up pulling it out and soldering it. I HATE THAT FAN! Anyway.. Doors are on (With bigger stars) and painted half of the bed. Getting close. Does anyone know the size flare fitting that tie the copper line into the slobber...

    One thing led to another

    So I should check the compressor line going into the gearbox? That's probably why it's leaking! :twisted: JUST KIDDING! Yeah the gear box leaks.... I have been reading threads on which route I am going to go with that... For now I just replace oil as necessary.. check the wire to the...

    Help please major brake problem

    You have a bad air pack. You can release the air or crack the bleeder on the air pack all you want to release the brakes. You will still have the same problem. I'll bet your brake lights aren't working right either. It seems that it is a beginning sign of a bad air pack.... that is of course...

    Yeah, Yeah, I know the stars need to be bigger..... Hopefully I'll have the majority of it done this week. Then it's the fine tuning crap.. It's really great when you misplace parts too! Had family stuff this weekend so barely got any work done. But.... family is still more important than...

    Brake Pedal - Power Assist Issue

    Just to add my 2 pennies..... Considering I just went through this recently. If the pedal goes to the floor, you have to bleed the master cylinder. Just take off the cap and start pushing the pedal. You will see air bubbles. Keep pushing until the pedal gets to constant height. Then...

    One thing led to another

    I made new rockers and replaced the metal where the cab and fenders meet. I used the old doors for sheet metal-yeah I'm cheap, but the metal was good. The paint is Krylon Camo Green. I bought out 3 local Walmarts of this paint. I installed the whistler turbo also. It was an easy swap...

    One thing led to another

    I figured I'd start freshening up the deuce with the new fenders and doors. Well I ended up taking the whole front end off, the hood, and the windows. Yeah I'm balls deep into this project! I at put my whistler on while I was at it! YEAH YEAH, I'll have pics of my naked deuce soon. Any...

    How do you justify a Deuce to a wife/gf?

    If she is just a girlfriend.... BUY IT! You don't have an obligation to her. A wife is a different story.

    While the radiator is off...

    Best way to install the lower hose is to do while the radiator is off. You can get your hand up in there to ensure it's on the block all the way. Then put the radiator back in but let the two bottom studs rest on the plate, don't put them in the holes yet. The put on the other end to radiator...

    While the radiator is off...

    You are right. The NAPA # is 7759, I had the gates cross reference 7372. 8 or 9 gallons of Coolant! You must have one of those hard to find special motors-- ldt 465 1D-SC "SC" for Super Cool! LOL. Should have been 32 quarts. Remove fan first. If you have a winch, use a piece of...

    While the radiator is off...

    Putting a new lower hose (NAPA 7372 cut 1 inch on each end) on is easier with the radiator off. Put the end to the block first then put the radiator back in and connect the other end. But while you have the radiator out, Get that compressor pulley loose. Spray PB Blaster and let sit. If it...

    Looking at trading my muscle car addiction for something a little greener...

    Get an A2.... Every mechanic in the 2 local military depots hate the A3 because they are hard to work on.
