I know I will get scorned for this as lots of people don't like them but I don't travel without a hi lift jack. Not so much for jacking but winching and clamping. They are great for pressing dogbones back on the bushing.
Let me add this, along with cribbing, I used to keep some 4x6 blocks in the truck as well. If you get a flat and you are able, drive the flat up on the 4x6. It will save cribbing time and efforts whilst changing the tire.
If that number is stamped in the frame, your truck is a 50s Gasser. I see that it was overhauled at Letterkenny. FL is going to want a title if you plan on driving it on public roadways.
For what it's worth,. Milwaukee has a nice little polisher that takes unlock discs. It was used many times at the GA Rally for headgasket work and such. I've cut my air hoses almost completely.
That steering arm has the tapered cones to lock it. Judicious swinging of a hammer on the side sometimes jars the cone free. If that doesn't work you could tack the nuts to the studs and screw it all out together.
A person who pays attention. I have not touched the ambulance at all. Some days I threaten to sell it. Still like the dual idea. John over at Hillbilly Wizard is good folk.
It looks great. I like the idea of the shore power. I've often contemplated the removal of the rear heater and installing a window A/C in the spot. I don't have the patience to troubleshoot that heater.

I do have a generic seat console I use as a drink holder. I share the fact that often, it needs to get purged for a 3rd person. They sure work great when only 2 are in the truck.
No.pics now as I don't remember where it is but I used a 4" PVC coupling epoxied to a piece of laminate. On the bottom of the laminate is another magnet. Crude but once stuck, it stays. MVs usually have steel available.
So.......I finally got this thing in the garage. Replaced shoes, pads wheel cylinders, hold down hardware, one backing plate, all hoses, all the rear steel lines and the master cylinder. Basically left the original combination valve and the front steel lines which look fresh. Works like a...
