    Wife’s new toy

    Got the Line Setting Ticket (build sheet) today after ordering the night of April 30 (39 days total, when it says could take 6 months) Just a bare bones Scout, but that is ok.

    Cruise Control Linkage Needed for an 87 tbi

    This should be it. About 8” long. Adjusts by hand, so not frozen up. @Hunter_Michael

    Cruise Control Linkage Needed for an 87 tbi

    I’ll try to remember to look tomorrow. Believe I still have the cruise stuff from an 89 Blazer I parted

    Wife’s new toy

    Picked up some used wheels (17x9) and tires as 3 of the steel wheels that was on it has pin holes rusted in them. She is not sure yet if she likes the looks of these, but got them at a good price. Will polish them back up eventually. Slowly getting more and more of the red and yellow off the...

    2000 6.5 turbo on a 82 6.2 diesel?

    Do you have factory a/c on your 82? The 6.5 turbo setup will hit the ac box. If your truck just has the heater, it will be fine. The down pipe will have to be fabricated. Looks to be a non egr intake too which is good. You can plug the map sensor and such as it is not needed with mechanical...

    Camber issue

    In the 80s, we’d cut a square out around the lower ball joint, cut 5/8” out behind the ball joint, then weld the ball joint piece of the control arm back in. Saw one of the trucks about 3 years ago, that I did in the 80s, still running around with the 4” drop springs and modified lower control...

    87 v3500 6.2 engine replacement

    What is your plans / use for the truck? We still find running 6.2 pullouts reasonably priced here in SW MS. Without a turbo, they are no powerhouses, but you may can find one cheap enough to get truck going for now. And can round up parts for later. Edit: I get my 6.2 pumps rebuilt at the a...

    Wife’s new toy

    Wife mentioned a while back that she would like an old Bronco or Scout, since her father had both when she was growing up. Visited a buddy (we’ve known each other since we were about 10 yo or so) a week or so ago to seeing how he was getting along with his pending divorce. He had this out...

    Castor shims

    On the IH Scouts, most of the housing c’s are welded with zero caster built in. A “cut and turn” is common on those vehicles.
