I did drop a couple of drops of green loctite wicking version inside the coupler. Had to use short set screws without jam nuts because they hit the header. Blue on the screws.

Not easy to swap. The lower shaft is welded in. Im only doing top due to header change. Ended up running 2 beads, file, drill a divot for the set screw. Waiting on top DD shaft due today.

I used to work for a big EV company you've probably heard of. I drove an engineering vehicle as my daily. We were not allowed to park in a garage and were asked to only charge at the charging stations. Not our home. 8*) FWIW.

I have a funny shaft on my Rat. It is 0.65" and a Single D. 3 sides are square with one side rounded. Looking to adapt that to a 3/4 DD coupler. Not having good luck finding one. My inclination is to run a bed on the non-D side and then file down...but if something exists already, I have...

Hell yeah. Love it!

That's way cool!

This one is metal base. But sure looks close to that one.

Installed most of the firewall. Seats came in so I put them in and just sat in them. Makes it a lot more roomy over the og seats in there. 2/3 of the floorpans done. Need to finish the pass side and some small patches on the bottom of the firewall. Clamshell motor mounts are too big...

Have this light on the top of my cab. 37 international pickup. Just wondering if anyone recognizes it?

Tough uploading pics.

Ripped out the rest of the wooden floor. Put in a 1x1 sub floor. Next is the firewall and floorpans.

You say cobble together like it's a bad thing. After all, the definition of a ratrod is you make due with what you have available. I would agree with your assessment. If you have zero fabrication skills and need every bracket to get it to fit you'll spend substantially more. Real world...

This one is super subjective. It really depends on what you are looking for. I have an air ride and experience working on the "kneeling" city busses that use air bags since back in the 80's. In my current vehicle I have an air ride. There are some downsides like mentioned. Leaks, bags...

North Austin.

Oh yeah. It's loud. I've ordered mufflers with auto cutouts. For daily I wanna be quiet on way out of neighborhood in AM

The Previous Owner owned a rock themed Bar and Grill plus a studio. So this was his inspiration for the paint job. That is why I coined it "Van Halen".

It'll sit about 1" off the ground when aired out. Rides about 4" if you setup normally. It has air bags and there are stops made to limit how low it goes. rides nice but needs front shocks. made a build thread. I will post more as it goes. Want to hit a show ~80 days away.

Starting off as a running roller. Not ready for the street. Plan is this will be my daily driver and parts runner for the shop. Has a custom Frame 2021 BluePrint Crate Motor/TH400 Mustang II front end Airbags without shocks unidentified rear end with a triangulated 4 link No side windows...

Just bought this 1937 International Truck. It was used as a promo vehicle for a restaurant and sat outside for a few years. Has a new Blue Print Crate 350 393hp/417tq. Not road worthy yet. Brake is where a clutch should be so moving that. Pulled out the interior, removed the hacked in...
