    shimming axle to help pinion angle

    Adjusting to zero or negative caster will create an ill-handling vehicle. Whatever term you give it, it won't be fun to drive. It's a simple matter of geometry. Sorry Richingalveston, I can't give you exact degrees off the top of my head. Rear lift height also effects the caster angle. Best...

    Go to the CUCV faq and read up on fusible links. That's what got cooked. Fusible link wire is available at NAPA.

    My 1954 M211

    That is a super dry and unmolested looking truck. Lots of congrats to you. Did you happen to take a pic of it as it sat for 10 years? It's first move in 10 years would have made one heck of a video.

    See, here lies the problem. Papabear is bringing a 20th century approach to this which is politically incorrect. Using the 21st century approach, follow these pointers. To avoid any possible discrimination suits, make sure that all school kids are mugged equally. As sure as I stand here, if...
