Youre bottom sliding bracket looks like it might be original,rest is just spacers and a coyple of simple straight bit of steel on mine.

I just had a read up on 200amp,they seem to be fitted in late model trucks as standard with lots of accessories or as an upgrade,one company said you must upgrade positive wire,so assuming your not running lots of accessories i would put an original one on there so it doesnt fry the wiring or...

Oil senders a bitch to get at,shame your not in uk ive a brand new carter bbd in the garage. Try Car SOS on national geographic nice ww2 jeep done up after it was in a fire.

Someone will shoot us for going off topic but i think if a jobs worth doin its worth doin well,im a rivet counter and proud of it so i find fault in all of it,although i still enjoy their shows.

Would you want them rwo messin with your motor ? The ww2 jeep episode made me cringe ive had too watch it 5 times so i could see more faults.

Puts my old heap to shame,nice truck in great condition. I allways used to carry hoses,belts alt resistor,ballast resistor,coil and ignition module. Check timing chain by rocking motor to see if distributor moves straight away or timing will never be right and check those freeze plugs. Happy...

I posted that in 2011 Bob and its taken me this long to find a radio rack,still no pics of members with radio set ups in there trucks,maybe when i get mine finished it will be the only one ? Still plodding away at restoring mine its not easy finding parts gere in England.
