Sounds strange. Those drums I had for 4" shoes had a track for 4" shoe exactly. There could be some exceptions sure but more looks like someone put incorrect drums in the past. The reason of using narrower shoes is to minimize the unsuspended mass of the axle. But lesser drum would split weight even notably. Same for possible savings of materials in the production.

The heads are interchengeable. The only point you have is a small tube between two heads connecting them (fuel drain?) and there's a plug with Allen head at the corresponding end of each head. So you might be needing to change the tube fitting with the plug if the particular head was mounted in the different position on engine previousely. No info on the peened seats from my side. Looks like a rocket technology of someone who provided a seat swap in a shop with hope to secure them better. Wouldn't make any help as it seems to me.

lol thanks for that the dirt just keeps spreading wow...,,bob

Run, run Rudolpf, Santa has to make it to town.....

From my desk top, I had to use the free Postimage.com to post pictures before I sent Barry the $75 to be a member.. Since then no problems.. From a phone I have no idea as all I have is an old flip phone!!

You're right. The thickness of mine is 1/16". The one mentioned must be the washer between the outer bearing and first lock nut. The other thing I thought of would be to dress down and flatten the damaged part and bend over the outer lock nut at a fresh location.

Im not actually sure

Took this through the window with the phone just now.

Placed my order for a kit. Hope to pick it up in a few days. It is coming out of Columbus, Ohio so it should only be a day or so.

Is the seat smaller than the angle? Maybe that would be correct and is actually at the match line? I'm working on pulling my 300 heads apart and checking things out.

We didn't get as much this time. We had about 4 or 5 inches last week but the next day it was in the 40's so a lot of it melted. This time it snowed all day yesterday but we only got about 3". But it was about 15 degrees this morning, calling for a high today of 32, so it'll be around a while. Miss the old F150 now, haven't seen a snow plow yet. I just don't have a lot of confidence in that Nissan, I knew that Ford would go. The Nissan might be fine, but it's got straight tread tires on it, and the last time we had it in 4wd we had a hard time getting it back out of 4wd. Roads are fine when you get to 460 anyway, the problem part would be getting from here up to the stop sign at Snapps Mill rd, it's uphill all the way. And all the way back. Oh...I just saw on TV that we had 6" in Appomattox. I was just going by what was on the back porch railing, but a lot of it blew off I'm sure because it was the light, powdery type snow.

Where is the defroster blend door on 89R model Mack

as far as the fire ring goes, I was taught to place the sharp edge down. The ring should fit nicely around the top of the liner
