Tricks ?

You know.... Fetch... Sit .... paw....



The usual stuff....





Upgrades, additional touches (JB Weld), specifications you've called out / mentioned, etc.

You've done your homework, and I was wondering what reference materials you were reciting.

I found 3 fan shrouds on craigslist for $15 a piece. They all look good (not cracked), think they would be worth getting?

Oliver is doing back flips right now

NJTman

uh... Yeah. You could sell them for $45 a piece and make 200 % over what you paid for them plus shipping..

****** them up, fella....

I'm a good dog and I listen well but have no owner to praise me or give me any treats for my tricks. On the list of pros and cons, that's a pro! For me....

To be honest...they are worth more then $45 each. If you put them up for for that price they would probably be gone in a couple days though.

Shhhhh !!!

I was going to buy one at a basement bargain price.


You''re ruining my getting a great deal !!!!!

I have a few spares for all my trucks screwed to the wall of my shop, so I am set.
That is a great price, someone should buy those.

How was the installation? Did you have to do much alteration to bolt them down? How do they fit the truck?
I need some new seats bad. I would prefer to have a 60/40 split bench, but I can't find one here. Ditto for Ramcharger seats that aren't too chewed up. I can find Durangos all day long at the salvage yards though.

Reindexed the throttle lever and now the idle is 100rpm too high. I'll have to work on that some more. Turned the star wheel up a turn. Did a lot for it. Smoke isn't anywhere near as bad and throttle response is excellent.

Put a pyrometer I got from eBay on the dash.

Bought a new thermocouple and wire kit from Isspro for it though.

Looks good...and the drapes are nice too...

I'm really wanting to make gas-charged lifting struts work to assist in the lifting of my hood since the coil springs are worn out. There's gotta be a simple method for doing so. I have used struts from my dad's 3rd gen. Since my engine's out, I'm going to reassemble the front end with the hood on and see what I can come up with. I'll see if I can't capture one in its collapsed position to determine positioning when closed and the other, extended, for when open. All I would need then are some of the ball-end hardware they clip to.

I suggest that you set up the pivot points so that you go over center when closed. . .

You need a set of good hinges?
