Wellllll, I may as well add some pics and an update.  In the last post I was swapping out the rear end from 3:32's to another rear with 4:10's to match the front.  The spring perches needed to be moved over bout an inch each, and I didn't have the tools or parts to do it, so I ended up putting the old rear back in :smack: Still lookin, but not real hard, for an early 70's rear 60 with 4:10's.... but with all the work i've been doin on teh Migo lately, I haven't had time to do much to my truck :hammerhead: Oh well, at least they're both drivable now :disturbed:

These two are from last year,




These are from this winter :eyebrow:

IFS is best kept at ambient temperature in a pile of scrap in the backyard.  When kept under a functioning vehicle, it tends to greatly diminish said vehicle's offroad ability.     -reklund5

Your truck needs a makeover. :eek:

Way to put it! I actually took bout 6 hours the other day and gave it just that... or prepped it for that.  I got inside and cleaned it out (the cab), I put new boots around my shifters (I was tired of losing brain cells from exhaust in the cab), I scrubbed the floor, I rewired my speakers, I washed the outside so that the next day I could sand it down and repaint my flames :smack: ..... then the next day it rained :rivers: Inside looks a lot better, and the outside is clean :gap: I just gotta get in the motor with a pressure washer so I can see when I go to fix whatever fuel problems it is that I'm having :hammerhead:

always remember a crowded elevator smells different to a midget.

It's an f-250, and the motor is the Ford 360.
