Replaced all The Coolant Hoses Etc.
Took top radiator hose off to replace and found thermostat housing in bad shape. Put a new one on.

Also found the water pump by-pass hose rotted and tube from manifold rusted away pushed out the old tube with tap of hammer and chisel. A little blue locktite on the new tube and drive it back in. Replaced the threaded fitting from manifold to the heater hose also.
Also stopped to see my buddy at the local Ford dealer and he found a FORD Add-On Key-less entry, Remote Start, Alarm with a keypad that goes on the exterior drivers door all of the above for $125.00.

Side Spare Tire Mount
With the help of a good guy way up north west he found, pulled, boxed and shipped a spare tire carrier for 78 F350 CS. Sand blasted, primed, painted and installed it looks like new. Pick up the spare tire Monday.
