    What’s IT Worth? (Post all “what’s it worth threads here)

    Yep. That's how I feel about it and was suggesting selling it as a parts truck. I actually went through the effort of having DMV run a search for the VIN as well as having my cop friend do a search for the cucv VIN. DMV search says it has never been titled. Police search has conflicting info of...

    I rebuilt it and ended up selling it to a friend that does mud bogs. I got used to the 3.08 gears. Much nicer cruising RPM for the highway.

    Ignition Switch Adjustment

    I'm back to wondering if it's the ignition switch. It was fine for a few weeks and it's acting up again. It is acting similar to a vehicle that has a poor connection with the battery terminals. Just a click and the lights go out. The battery is less than a year old and has good voltage. The...

    I'm in need of help identifying Universal Joints.

    I don't know that you are going to identify them without removing/measuring them. You need a set of calipers to get the cap diameters and the distance from one cap to another. Then look for a cross reference from your company of choice.

    I buy from LMC all the time and I've never had to do that.

    Part Identification Flywheel Filler Plate

    Thanks. That got me pointed in the right direction. Inspection cover seems to be the closest thing to an official name I see. https://4speedconversions-com.3dcartstores.com/bell-cover.html
