    Two Unis!

    Hey, y'all –*I spend most of my time over on the Gen 6 board (since I have a '73 F250 and a '74 F350 SCS), but a good friend of mine has two '61 Unibodies.The first one he bought came with an airbag setup, later Ford front clip, etc., so he bought a second one to scavenge parts from. Both are...

    Oh, C'MON...

    I'm smellin' you on that, broseph. I'd love to have the kit...he1l, I'd love to have one of each of the few Dent kits that were actually made, but I just don't think they're worth that much. But maybe I'm the one smokin' crack...

    Dents on TV

    My '73 F250 was in "Pursuit of Hapyness" with Will Smith and an ad for Cisco Systems, but I don't think the crew appreciated that thing firing up and idling with its straight pipes and dumps facing down right before the rear axle...blew dust and gravel all over the place every time I started it...

    Oh, C'MON...

    I always keep my eyes out for Dent model kits...and they seem kinda rare. But $90 for the Tuff Truk?!?!http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120689096216&viewitem=&sspagename=ADME%3AB%3***%3AMOTORS%3A1123#ht_1923wt_1141

    Hitch wiring advice needed!

    You got two left, Mil1ion? Wanna sell one of them?

    Mysteries of the fan clutch

    Ah, that makes sense ––*I appreciate the knowledge-drop on this!

    Hitch wiring advice needed!

    OK--that connector is the missing link I wasn't aware of! I'll get under her and take a look and see if I can find that thing.Now, as far as that tee connector goes, Mil1ion: I've never seen one quite like that ––*is there a shop near you that sells them? I'd love to get my hands on one of...

    Hitch wiring advice needed!

    Ah, I think I spoke too soon: I don't have a tee like that at all. But that sure does look like what I need!So, Mil1ion, is that diagram showing a harness at the rear of the frame that was factory installed?

    Hitch wiring advice needed!

    OK, got the tee for the rear of the truck--now, where do I attach the wires on the other end? In other words, how do I make the tee "hot?"

    Hitch wiring advice needed!

    Thanks, Mil1ion –– I got the wiring running down the driver's side frame rail, but I don't know where to connect the wiring to actuate the turn signals, flashers, brake lights, etc. I bought the bundled wires that are all color coded and labeled, but where do each of those wires connect? Do I...

    Mysteries of the fan clutch

    Question: what does a fan clutch actually do? I've got one on my '74 F350 SCS's 460, while my old '73 F250 w/460 didn't have one.What's the advantage to a fan clutch? I've always seen them, but never really knew what they actually did...

    Hitch wiring advice needed!

    Hey, guys ––*I'm finally getting around to installing the new hitch receiver on my '74 F350 SCS. Got the receiver mounted and the brake installed and wired, as well as the hookup mounted at the rear.But, now I have to run the wire kit from the front of the truck to the rear and into the...

    Steering column/shifter help needed

    Got it all back together and I ordered a $12.00 pin from Dennis Carpenter (which was a H3LL of a lot cheaper than LMC's $40+ version). I manually held the switch and sure enough, she started right up.Do these things break when the steering shaft moves against the static pin? I'd heard of...

    Steering column/shifter help needed

    That's it, Mil1ion! So, the fact that this piece just broke--would that prevent the truck from starting?

    Steering column/shifter help needed

    From what I can tell, I broke the "finger" part of this part here –– the NSS, like you said, Mil1ion. Where is that thing located on the column?

    Steering column/shifter help needed

    Hey, guys--I was replacing the turn signal/flasher unit in my steering column today. Got it all back together (even got my horn working again, too), bolted the steering wheel back down, went to start it and no start. All the flashers, signals, electric seemed to be working, but no ignition.So...

    Cabin Chassis?

    OH SH1T!!! HAHAHAHA! Gawd, don't I look like the dumbass?!?!? OK, cab AND chassis it is. That's typical for me: thought the guy on the phone said 'cabin chassis' and when I repeated it back to him, his slight accent made it sound like that's what he said.So, I get why the frame would be...

    Cabin Chassis?

    So, I ordered a brand-new hitch for my '74 Super Camper and finally had a few hours today to mount the damn thing. Been a month since it was delivered overnite (free shipping) from JC Whitney, so you can imagine how happy I was to finally get to it today.And, as some of you might already have...

    What do you all think?? value

    NICE! Consider finding out exactly what's wrong with the motor. If it spun a main bearing or something like that, it might be worth investigating the cost of a rebuild on the original motor. Just a thought.And Mil1ion--what's the haps on that motor of yours?!?

    Looking for a Dent Side

    If you haven't found one yet, here's a potential candidate:http://sfbay.craigslist.org/eby/cto/2185656446.htmlI think it's a '77 and not a '75, but the great condition of the bed and missing tailgate makes me think it had a camper in the bed for most of its life. It's also in the SF Bay...

    Neat wheels

    Those SuperDrags are SOOO cool! Man, if I could find a set of 16.5" x 10"s and 6"-somethings for that 'big-n-little' look, I'd snap 'em up in a heartbeat.And that AKH site has some GREAT stuff. I've got a set of vintage magnesium wheels for one of my hot rod projects and that stuff is getting...

    grille question please help

    My favorite years are the 73s--75s because of the grille. I think the round headlight bezel in those grilles look the best. Show a pic when you get 'er done!

    Orange '76 Dent available

    Yeah, that grille was the first giveaway that the seller doesn't know the difference in years. But I've always dug that orange color and the funky interior that goes along with it. Looks straight. If I didn't just get my SCS a few months ago, I'd probably already own this one...

    Orange '76 Dent available

    Check this thing out, fellers:http://sfbay.craigslist.org/sby/cto/2181567755.htmlNeat truck and it looks clean. Somebody snag this thing up before it gets turned into some sort of Burning Man vessel!

    exhaust

    I had late Seventies Hooker long-tubes on my 460 mated up to 2.25" pipes through a pair of Flowmasters that turned down and exited right before the rear axle. I liked that setup because it had a real "throaty" sound and the tips were completely hidden, but the header flanges hung down below the...
