I've used the power valves in the Standard carb kit in a number of '94 I've rebuilt lately, including the duals on my '50. No problems with them...
Yup no need for anything special. They came that way so just stock parts.
This is the tool I've been been using for 40 years. It has 3 threaded adapters to fit the stud ... depending what you're working on. Works every...
Is the barrel of the lower shock mount parallel with the lower control arm inner shaft. If not the shock breakage could be caused by that. Shoebox...
Yup, the other day there was frost on all the windows. My '50 gets to sit out on the driveway, so all the windows were frosted over.[ATTACH]
As far as the 3.03, I used one in my '50 Ford. Stock '50 bell housing and 1964 trans, so only one bolt pattern and it fit the bellhousing...
My brother put a contraption like that together once. You absolutely couldn't drive it over 45 MPH. Instead of being the best of two worlds it...
I've had that happen in southern Manitoba !! An electric fuel pump on a toggle switch turns it into a non problem. :)
Looking for a little help here. A friend of mine has a 55 GMC pick-up with a 235 engine. He's been unable to find a fuel pump kit or a pump that's...
Looks like the rear bumper on a '54 Chevy pick-up in my shop right now..
Going to check the steering box bolts on mine too. :) I had never heard they were a problem nor seen any broken ones.
Dakota Digital (Rostra) work well. Programming is sometimes a bit of a challenge, but they work very well.
Yup, same diagram in my book.
I have an illustrated Ford parts book for those years. By the illustration It would suggest the harness goes at the bottom, or below the radiator...
[ATTACH] This is what I did on my '50, quite similar to what you have done. It works well and is not hard to push the pedal.[ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
This is what I use.[ATTACH]
No I didn't. I did adjust the valves while the intake was off but that's it.
Yup, I installed a Bob Drake LH manifold a few years back. I think I got one of the last few available. Fits and works well. That flattie with...
The switch doesn't need to be grounded to the dash to work. It has probably worn and come apart inside and a hot terminal is touching ground...
It depends how you treat it. They are not a strong rear end at all. Good luck.
Yup, I painted a couple of cars back in the late '60s with a vacuum cleaner sprayer. Worked OK, all things considered. I bet I still have that...
Yes, the front bolts are 7/16 not 3/8. depending on the manifold used there may not be a lot of clearance for a wrench or socket. If a thin wall...
Pretty much as above but I use a ball joint press to do it. I sometimes have to make up a driver or receiver to fit the bushings.
I'm remembering this from the mid '60s so don't take it as gospel. The one with the fuse holder goes to battery power. The ground is through the...
Rock auto shows in stock.
If you really have Bronco hardware I'd expect self adjusting brakes, and that's not what you have there. Otherwise for manual adjusting brakes of...
Last year this time, I needed a clutch disc for my '50 Ford. 9.5 inch but with 1 1/16th inch spline. Was told no problem and promptly shipped it....
I warm up the insulation with a cigarette lighter and just pull it off while warm (hot) don't burn your fingers. :)
Sorry for your loss. :(
I'm sure this is a question not needed to be asked, but is the car supported by the frame and not under the control arm. Sorry for asking such a...
