I used a hole saw and sawed the sidewalls of old tires, then drilled the center hole out larger.

I've been thinkin about getting another dog just so I could name it Ratchet. I like that, also Lugnut.

Im a sucker for a slant six. Cheap and you just cant kill em.

BY th way, isnt ackerman that football player for dallas? Whats he got to do with my steering?

Dang,after looking at these setups Im embaressed by my homemade ladderbar/coil spring setup. Im glad the bed will cover it.

I had to swap my Ford spindles side to side and put the tierod in front because with a 4" drop axle the tierod wants to be right where the radius rods are. I read in Speedway catalog to heat and bend the steering arms but man, it would take a lot to clear. Is this why people use split wishbones?

2 x 3 x 3/16th. Last week I paid $130 for a 20' pc. I called around and found the price varied to as high as $178 for same pc. Funny thing, not one place stocked that size, they stock 1/4" and 11 ga. Whenever I buy steel I take my generator and chopsaw or portaband and cut in the parking lot so...

What a sweet motor. My car really would be a "low rider" with that monster mill sitting in it. Can you imagine the confusion at Autozone trying to buy parts for it?

Nothin to do with you, just wondering how long it is. By the way Bonehead, your truck is now my wallpaper on my pc. Thanks for the inspiration.

What is the wheelbase on your badass truck?

Hotter than fish grease. Dont you know pelosi and the hildabeast are fumin?

Yeah, best of luck but dont worry too much, stints are a cakewalk. I just waited too long and had a heart attack first. And when I had the heart attack (in the shower) I fell and busted up my knee so I couldnt walk. The cardiologist wouldnt let me have surgery on my knee for 2 months afterwords...

Good metalcutting bandsaws are wet. The blades are also have large teeth like a woodsaw. Dry metal bandsaws have blades that look like hacksaws with lots of small teeth per inch. Metal saws also have a way to clamp your piece down.

OK, the center section is centered and of course the wheels are centered on the chassis, so I will just center the engine and let the drive shaft angle to it. I guess thats why they put u joints in em. Thanks.

With my 9" rearend (from a ford p/u unknown vintage) centered on the frame the input shaft yoke is offset to the right by about 3". Are all stock 9"s this way? And do I a)center the motor and trans and let the driveshaft run at an angle,b) set the motor and trans at an angle pointing at the...

I almost daily have to jack up forklifts and crawl under them. Bet your ass I have the best jack stands you can buy and also go redundant with oak blocks. I wont stick my head under there without triple checking. 12-15000 lb with 4" ground clearance would harm even my hard head. I also do the...

Having grown up in PI and brownsville I can say it would take more than 2' of rain to wash away the filth of that border town.

Engine and trans dont go with, its set up for sbc & powerglide. I will go with I-6 and 3 speed, not sure if I would have to cut stuff off and start over. We are planning to drive down there this weekend with cash and a trailer.

I am seriuosly thinking of picking this one up. Opinions? http://sanantonio.craigslist.org/car/764442447.html Please dont buy it from under me before this weekend.

Toyota forklifts have a solid state relay that wont come on unless it see,s a pulse signal (tach wire from distributor) The pupose of this device is to shut off the fuel when the motor isnt running. If you want I could get you the part number and a wiring diagram. Its called a rev switch. To bad...
