Several show it, but when I tried adding it to cart, or ordering it it's unavailable. Then they say they can't order it.

Thanks, I will.

The brake booster is bad on my 77ish, so I tried NAPA, O'Reillys, Rock Auto, Advanced, and none of them seem to be able to get the booster for dual piston brakes. Any ideas what else would work? What about something from a hot rod shop?

Thanks for the reply's. The MDF looks like a good alternative and cheap enough to try it without guilt! ;)

My existing one is so flimsy I barely got it out in one piece. Edges are so bad I will have a fun time even using it as a pattern.I looked at foam insulation similar to what would go against a cement wall. I was thinking 1/2" would be an improvement if I could get it to stick. The backing I...

I need to replace the headliner in my 75. My truck is basically a beater so I'm looking for a cheaper alternative than the plastic one. The cardboard looking ones still cost a little and will swell and get ruined again. I'm thinking about some kind of thin sheet plastic or similar that will bend...

I'm on the other end of the thermometer concern. I once rebuilt a Buick v6 for a Toyota SR5 and while it was still in the break in period, temps dropped to -20 and I ruined the fresh rebuild. I don't do many rebuilds anymore, but learned from an engine builder one tip after this.He said"...

I'm of the opinion that the modern synthetics are amazing and unless you have leaks, I think now that you've broken it in, it would be the perfect time to switch to a full synthetic. I usually run AmsOil now (became a dealer) but there are a few that rate pretty high.

Yep Archery season. Close but no cigar.

Took my old beast elk hunting for a couple weeks. First real work it's done in a long while. It started out my son's project, wound up mine. It's been a tinker toy for a while. It was fun getting it out in the mountains. Seemed appropriate.

Welcome

Welcome. Look forward to learning from you.

Aquatic is definitely the way to go. Best mod you could do at this point!

Welcome to FTF.

My 351m was doing the same thing, low side idle adjustment seemed to be plugged up. Also, possible vacuum leaks. Swapped the carb and it seems much better. Mine may need more love, as I have no idea how old the distributor is, condition of the wires, or plugs, but I will soon.One more thing is...

Welcome! And again Thank You for serving. I'm a Navy Vet myself, and spent almost three years in the Gulf some years back, though it wasn't as bad as it's been for you guys this last go around.This is a good sight to pick brains.

I know lots of 4x4 shops recommend replacing them with a GM pump. I believe due to slightly higher pressure and flow.I just reworked mine when I took the truck over and used a factory pump out of the junk yard. No issues yet, but i'm not working it to hard. I am running 36's though.

Mine was running pretty rough, and I suspected the fuel pump was not doing well. Well you know how things snowball... New timing set, fuel pump, and water pump.Nicest looking piece on the truck.

I'm having a similar issue but it's intermittent. In the past I've had both a fuel pump and distributor issue. I'm working from the tank up.

My sons truck has the 44HD in it with the Bendix steering mess. He's coming home soon from deployment and I'd like to get the steering fixed for him. As always it comes to time and money, neither abundant, but it needs fixing.A longer pitman arm or raising the steering arm would work, or...

Well you asked.... The dash in mine was already butchered so I didn't feel guilty. I didn't like the sound coming from those little speakers so I cut the door opening bigger and put in some 6x8 Kenwood speakers I got on sale when getting a stereo for my son. They are hidden buy the door panel...

I've got this hunch that LMC is far from the end-all for resto parts. It's convenient but.......So I've used Rock Auto for some stuff, and even O'Riellys, but for things like body panels, cab corners, OEM weather stripping, beltline seals, etc. where would you send a guy?If this thread...

I am also a Jeep owner. Several times over as a matter of fact. When I was driving an early Jeep it was pretty common to have other Jeep drivers wave. Not to long ago we bought a newer Wrangler with four doors. It was funny, how some would wave and others not. The girly jeeps would rarely wave...

I found a video for those of you interested. I still have yet to do the job but this one gives a pretty good tutorial. Video is by Precision Replacement Parts.eUUGMEOVfmA

I really need to change out my window seals but I've never messed with any ever.If anyone has any tips or tricks, guidance etc. it would be greatly appreciated. I'm not even sure how they attach.
