    lots of links to jegs and summit for them, but they have a nice website of their own with the services and glossary of terms about such things,...and the terms are what you need to search and find things. (even if other sites call things differently) seems they have offerings for newer...

    NO BRAKE PRESSURE AFTER ALMOST FULL SYSTEM REPLACEMENT!!

    thought I would add to my last post with a link. (was typing yesterday on my cell phone, and much harder to hunt and link) I posted a bit of my own brake issues last year on this thread, (maybe helpful to the original poster as they have a 1 ton,...and 3/4 and 1 tons share some parts)...

    Container based shop: 2 post lift placement advice?

    Beware: local utilities should "should" have techs that come out and mark with paint / little flags. (like the ominously happy call before you dig phone #,...- where I live I think a meter reader will come out and do it quickly,...and all the utilities will pay for the time). and its free /...

    Need real-world exhaust advise

    My 86 350 is on factory original .... not loud at all. ..kind of a nice typical rumble to easily talk over....2 massive mufflers under the front of the bed,..no crossover between them, just wish all that was outside the frame rail, and the gas tanks inside.

    Looking for bench seat options with a foldable back / armrest

    getting one out of a pick pull from a later model is a good cheap idea. there are some real beefy things out there like a 2002 era GMC.... (lots of foam, ...not sure how hard it would be to put power in,...but maybe you find something with all the works "working" in one easy place,...such...

    when I first looked a this thread, there was a picture of the passenger front corner, badge I think said 396 SS between the headlight and the front passenger side tire. that pic got deleted, and the driver side pic inserted...without a 396 SS badge (so I guess the original poster swapped pics)

    another opinion in person is definitely valuable. even if that opinion is to tell the seller how to make it start and run cheaply with a baby bottle of gas under the hood, enough to drive it down the block and up on a Uhaul trailer,....and if the seller can't do that ....its a pile of broken...
