Send some pics to The View, it's a natural fit there for Super HD heifer hauling, when they go on the road. Maybe see Holmes for a custom...
If you prefer big rears, you probably like The View
FWIW, and if I remember correctly on Ford 1/2 tons in the 60's if the truck had limited slip, you got a Dana 44, not a 9". "Sometime" in the later...
So there are these two dudes, one of which owned a slightly OT muscle car, won't say the name but if you add up the name it comes to ten, this was...
Times have changed since the olden days. Way back then, where I was living, and in most other places I believe, after 6PM things were pretty quiet...
Non-VP 400 converters will fit non-VP ST 300s and TH350s. For years the HP 400 TC was a full sized 400 unit, you could tell it was high stall...
"...Is everyone forgetting the sunbeam tiger had a ford 260cu in it had room to spare" Now that is funny. Change the plugs on one and get back to...
"...When they first installed the HEMI into the vehicles in the early 50, Chrysler felt that because of the advance engineering of the engine that...
"...referring to the whine, what causes this? I have a th350 with a whiney 1st gear and the trans mount was failed when I bought the car - the...
350s are a "dirty" trans so benefit from oil changes, especially as you'll only get 1/2 or less out. Looks like your rear mount has collapsed,...
Back in the day, the front yoke I often used when switching from a PG, 350, Muncie etc to a 400 was an Oldsmobile one that used Spicer joints,...
"...Call Melling , they'll be happy to tell you that pumping the pan dry simply doesn't happen..." Years ago, we were heading south on I5 in a '53...
"all were equipped with a 3 speed Turbo Drive automatic. This was Lincoln's version of the Warner Gear transmission known in Ford as Fordomatic...

Squirrel is correct, your early 44 will take a course [hobbed] spline while anything made in the last few decades will use a fine [rolled] spline...
I just remembered...years ago a friend built a 283/hydro combo and it seems to me, the single coupling hydro he used was out of a Hudson Jet and...
Rock Auto can deliver real Wix oil filters landed in Canada cheaper than the local Napa sells "Napa Gold" knockoffs. No French instructions, though...
[MEDIA] exhaustive series, by Weber State on the hydromatic: [MEDIA] [MEDIA] [MEDIA] [MEDIA]
I have used flex grease gun hose for oil pressure gauges a number of times, cheap and effective.
My 2 cents is that you need a 3 or 4 speed trans in that rig like a hole in the head. Go find a ST300, which is a sort of an HD powerglide [also...
"...REALLY glad a proud "lad of the rock" posted this..." Well, this skilled metal basher is a Newf, but I ain't, unless you mean White Rock....
Times are always tough in Newfoundland, and folks there are used to working with what they can find. Some interesting techniques: [MEDIA] [MEDIA]
I was reasonably old when I finally figured out that cars were not either a shitbox or a lump-dose. I maybe clued in when Gran called one a...
65 is a one year only trans, with a 66-up type slip yoke but still cable shift. Different length, too, IIRC. BTW, the column shift and floor shift...
While there is some heat in this topic here, it seems well within bounds especially when the gravity of the situation is considered, so I hope it...
Well, I'm about the same vintage as you, with a roughly similar car background and did automatics etc. for years. If it was mine, I would gear it...
The first few years of TH350s had a different shape link between the rooster comb and the manual valve compared to the later TH350s, which all had...
Years ago I made a roll up and down 6 mil plastic paint booth using some 1 inch dowels, small pulleys and nylon cord. Worked great. Trust y'all...
It could be worse. Just think how lucky we are that every body part is permanently attached, even though it would be more convenient to be able to...
"...A smaller pulley will turn the generator FASTER." Yup. That's why Ford used them in '64. When a cam was added to the lo-po 289, the extra...
