  1. You need too. Those stop bolts have been known to fall out, and that puts a lot of stress on the steering system, from the box to all the linkages...
  2. Look behind the spindles on the back should be a large hex or square head bolt with a jam nut. It stops againsnt the triangular bump outs on the axle beam. If you are over steering, you will have a slow to no return on its own.
  3. That will set the turning radius, theres one on top too. Are your steering stop bolts in place and adjusted correctly?
  4. Dammit.....
  5. He definately needs to do some diagnostics. He may just have an issue in the oil filter pad, like a check valve. Fi some reason I have forgotten the how its made. But i do have one in my shop that I can photograph..
  6. loose steering joints. U-Joints, tie rod ends, drag link ends.....
  7. isnt that a 3157 bulb? those sockets are at auto parts stores.
  8. F.Y.I. this is NOT a rattle can rebuild. I measure the journals, and conter bore depth and I also dress the counter bores and shim the liners. These liners are within .002" across the deck. I also have all my notes on paper from diss assembly through reassmbly. The heads are spot on as well. Just a little insight on this one. Jojo
  9. Mike, I have a long block that is built with steel lifters and the high horsepower cam key installed. I also have the bolt-on parts. PM 880joe and keep me in the loop..
  10. Oh Hell !!
  11. Is it a sheppard steering box. I think you can leave it mounted, and pull the sector shaft out to replace the rear seal. Its been a while for me..
  12. You can drop the oil pan and pressure test the cooling system to 16 P.S.i. and look for coolant leaking around the bottom of the liners.
  13. I find it interesting that the steering shaft slip joint that is under the dash in an American R Model, is at the steering box. Although, I dont see the steering box, just assuming..
  14. Ok. Tight as it will go then back it off to the next slot for the cotter pin
  15. Gas is $3:59- $3.89/ gallon
  16. All the EUP lifters are steel.. the valve lifter became ceramic in around 2002. Steel lifters are my go-to... the intake bridges were changed when heads with pinless intakes was introduced.. spring loaded pushrods were for the backcut on the exhaust cam lobes on the new style cam shaft. A Real E-Tech did NOT use spring loaded pushrods.. Im going to stop here, as more info needs to be posted. What is the basic goal of your question?
  17. I wish I am The buyer... but I really do have plenty to do. I also swapped for the 76 C-10 big block truck that needs my attention.. Its a rare bird, and will fit nicely in my mini collection..
  18. Did you unplug the big plug on the turn signal switch to see if the lights go out?
  19. Bob,, I had a Tonya toy when i was around 22.
  20. If I didnt have this tool, I couldnt do it.
  21. Yep... I have been in the situation several times.. drilled out a few as well. Good jod sir..
  22. I totaly agree.....
  23. This crap may need its own thread... Mayor Mamdani in N.Y.C. just apointed a person to be the leader of the office of LGBTQIA...... what is that ??? So to the Democrats here, What the heck is that ?? I only ever knew of a Man and a Woman... Its in Genesis.... how do lib dems push this garbage.. G.W. / 67/ Mackey / Truckcrazy.. please teach why I am wrong.....
  24. Good observation Bob... I have had several weeks of being a Big Boy... I just feel like doing something like this. I have 2 of these, both are rescue's from the same scrap yard.. I got the first one for free. This one cost $7.50....
  25. that sucks, just like Volvo.. Just curious.... Is there enough meat to cut NPT threads and make it RIGHT ?
