And why were the threads rounded? :D The ones on the F100 looked the same way. My 82 parts truck had better arms and linkage, so I swapped the entire wiper setup from the 82 to my F100.

Alright ill get some of it tomorrow. Still fightin the carb vacuum leak but found the choke to be the problem so I tapped the hole and put a screw with some sealant on the threads to keep it from leakin. Ill throw it on there in the mornin and see how it runs.

Thanks guys I hope itll be a good one and not turn into a never ending money pit like the 76 did. I got it back from the windshield place and the one they put in it is warped in the top drivers side corner so itll go back tuesday when they get another one in. Also got the turn signal stat done in about 15 minutes to my surprise. When me and dad did the one on the 76 we had to take all the wires out of the plug to get it down the column, but this had a cutout in the column that was shaped like the plug so it went right in. Should hopefully have it registered by next week.
