    crewcab arm rest

    '67 crewcabs had armrests...the same ones used for the front doors. '68-'72 crewcabs didn't have armrests on the rear doors. Here's what those four holes are for:

    1978 F 100 instrument cluster help

    It would probably be cheapest to just buy another instrument panel from a junkyard or E-bay to salvage the gauges from. However, if you're willing to pay for new NOS, there's listings for the following for $35-$45 each:NOS Oil pressure gauge NOS Ammeter NOS Temperature gauge

    V2..The Dents We Find

    The seller of that truck has had it listed non-stop for at least a couple months. (I bought my '75 SuperCab off E-bay back in June...it was was listed then!) Every time it's listed, it gets fewer bids. I think people are sicking of playing whatever game the seller's playing. I know I'm sick of...

    Remove the gas pedal rod from the carb. Does it now fully close? If so, adjust the throttle rod as required.

    What goes around . . leaks . . back to the rear axle seals

    Yes, you can use spread a little sealant around the outside shell of the axle seal and then install it (not the rubber lip). You can also spread a little sealant around the outside of the bearing race before installation.I recently bought a custom 9" narrowed housing with narrowed Curie axles...

    What goes around . . leaks . . back to the rear axle seals

    I didn't check your other thread, but you didn't state WHERE it was leaking. Are you sure it's from the bearing area?When a rearend is being used, the heat build-up inside creates pressure.

    newbie needs help

    Well, if we're talking about collision protection, the Ch*vy tanks did explode...because they were outside the frame rail and exposed! An under-bed in-frame factory main or auxiliary tank is still subject to possible puncture in a violent crash...but an in-cab tank will virtually never be...

The 4WD cab's rear mounts are outboard of the frame, on brackets riveted to the frame rail. To mount the 2WD cab on the...
