Thanks for the links 70duece.

Lots of potential Hazards there. I have to wonder if static electricity would be one? Great photo of a Dangerous Duty.

Have you checked with a volt meter to see if the charging system is fine?

There where Guys at work that used them on the front support on Dozers and Highlifts by using a magnet, or the tool had one made into it. This would get the slopes close enough before I would run slope stakes to check. I would either put a toe stake or top of slope stake and put the ratio on...

Outstanding an Honor Guard of Iron.

OUTSTANDING Thank You I Needed That

And lots of grease on the finger. And take off the wheel and wheelwell, makes it easier but is more work.

Thank You papabear for the insight of the Men in the convoys, and the innovation needed to stay alive. I had a very good Friend growing up that was a driver in fuel convoys, Nam.

Welcome aboard! Nice Truck, can you tell if it is a repaint? Square body Dodge is also a favorite of mine behind the PowerWagons. It also seems like the Air Force purchased a lot of Dodges in all kind of chassis configurations. I would guess that the first four door pickups were Dodges. Also...

Welcome from Missouri! Great looking start for a project. Looks to have a lot of the drivetrain. Even for the truck being used for another purpose.

Welcome from Missouri!

Welcome from Missouri!

Just thinking, have you checked the steering box frame bolts? Or for frame cracks in the same area? One area that shall have blue locktite on the 3 bolts to keep them from backing out.

Just out of curiosity did you push the sway bar down to the mounting holes? I would agree that the leaf spring has been stressed. I have had them far worse and put in my press and "straightened " back as best I could. Are they the same? Well never but do you want to buy spring packs all the...

Great Idea! Just a thought I wonder if spray copper coat would "glue in place" the strip and make contact also?

Lost part of my post. After backing off I noticed that the axle had racked off to the right because of the spring pack had shifted on the front spring eye bushings and the sway bar bushings were holding it in place. After racking the axle back I looked at why and seen that the springs distorted...

Have the upper king pin bushings been replaced? Have the lower bearing packs been inspected in the spindle? How about the swaybar bushings, has the sway bar moved in bushing, racking frontend? I went to the quarry and was driving over a boulder pile and when I got off the rock pile I noticed...

Outstanding!
