    So what did you do with your truck today?

    If pafixitman ever updates his build thread....you could see how I do the headlight relay mod. [emoji1314][emoji1314][emoji1314] We don’t need no stinking kits. LOL

    Headlight relay mod is your friend here if you haven’t done it yet. Takes the load off the switch.

    I'm back in the IDI game!

    I deleted mine but I don’t worry about heating up my ZF. [emoji16]

    Seat help

    They don’t tilt (flip forward) like the originals do but they do slide all the way forward and then you lean the seat forward with the other handle. I’m not a small guy and I can get in and out without too much contortion. The seats were one of the first things I bought. As good as the brick...

    Seat help

    Bronco and supercab trucks swap front seats directly. The floor pans are a bit different in the crew and single cabs. Crew and single cab seats are all interchangeable. Just FYI.

    i am in need of some much needed direction.

    I approve!! It is certainly different. I like different. [emoji16]

    Drive train experts...please step inside!

    Driveline vibrations are a bear sometimes. All pretty good advice. I would lean towards an input bearing or maybe a thrust bearing in the trans. ZF5’s like to eat the input shaft seal and start the downhill slide with a leak. Not sure about a zf6. Around here, shops that do manual...

    Seat help

    Yep. There are rare split bench seats for super cabs (I happen to have one that was in a truck it didn’t belong in). I think the flavor you are thinking about is the frame that bolts in place of the standard bench. I forget what truck it’s out of but I think IDIoit knows and has used that frame.

    Seat help

    @snicklas not quite. My seats are buckets out of a 2012ish F150. I modified the supercab seat brackets to accept the seats. The console is on a custom riser because there is no arm rest on these seats.

    Diego Revisited

    Exactly. The f150’s were very “car-like” to ride in. Just don’t try to load them real heavy without overloads. I broke a leaf spring with a truck load of green hickory.

    Diego Revisited

    The early 90’s f150 compared to the k1500’s was no contest. The fords were much nicer to ride in IMHO. The chevys had lousy seats and stiffer suspension. Better “trucks” maybe but the fords were better drivers. Handled better. Cornered better. Just more comfortable.

    Diego Revisited

    I know of a square body GMC Jimmy with brush guard that killed way more deer than any firearm I’ve ever seen. They just liked to jump in front of it as it accelerated toward. Damnedest thing. LOL [emoji15] My 88F150 in highschool got 1 new fender (real ford because they were available...

    Well, if you’d seen everything else we tried... I was done playing.

    Repairing a rusted Rad support for a 1986 style

    I recommend lock nuts on those. I lost several sets Bolted on like that until I did lock nuts. Looks great!

    Yes. Newer windows. Older cab. In other news, we’ve been trying to reach you about your vehicles expired extended warranty.

    Crew cab measurements

    You are correct. I had a list of wheel bases and grabbed the wrong one out of my head. I was looking for outside measurements. It’s going to be a little under 8’ which is close enough for my purposes. Thanks guys.

    Crew cab measurements

    I’m not looking for the wheelbase but I think I follow your logic. I’m pretty sure supercab is 157” though.

    Can anyone tell me the length of a crew cab from firewall to back of cab? Asking for a friend. [emoji6]

    Repairing a rusted Rad support for a 1986 style

    Having gutted and straightened one of these, I would say first that it looks good. Second I would say I hope you took good measurements. Mine is pretty close but the radiator really doesn’t rest much on the pins. At some point a couple years back I saw someone had produced a kit to fix the...

    I can totally respect that. My truck still hasn’t been cut and buffed how many years later??

    BOOB power tour

    My first rally was fun. I got the truck together. Made the trip to pick up the new camper. On the next trip it broke a rocker arm bolt,bent a pushrod and got towed home 100 miles (just the empty truck luckily). New bolt and pushrod and we went 600 + miles to KY (truck and new camper) with the...

    Repairing a rusted Rad support for a 1986 style

    Beautiful metal work as always. I figured you had done the core support when you worked the rest of the truck over.
