    Hey Folks, been a while. Need tanks

    for my F250. It's 69oiler's old standard cab. The rust is just tearing me up. Sat pretty much all winter with bad brake lines, finally got them all replaced and have a fellow who loves these trucks keeping an eye out for a set of tanks for me. But I am so sick of dealing with rotting...

    broken tie rod end

    Passenger side, freaked me out pretty bad. Fortunately I was lugging around on the lane doing road work when it happened. I was able to get it off the road, so i wasn't blocking the lane. Man, what would have happened if I were out on the hiway, I don't even want to think. that said, any...

    front axle bump stop clearance.

    on my new-old 86 (courtesy the good 69oiler) I'm trying to figure out if that 1-1/2" or so I have for bump stop clearance is correct. I haven't found any 4x4 f250s of this vintage around to look at that aren't lifted sky-high. What should I be seeing for clearance up there? thanks in...

    So far, so good.

    With my new old f250. I'd call this experiment a success. I bought an '84(what the title says) F250 6.9 flatbed 2wd, automatic, 1 ton axles for very little money. It's ugly, nasty (was where the dog used to sleep) and so on. I threw out the old seat, and pulled a better seat out of an...

    Okay, I did it, Ignorant question #1

    When I was in the service, they said the only stupid question was the one you didn't ask. This isn't true. Usually the stupid question is the one I asked. that said, I did it. My own fault, no one to blame by myself. On about the 4th trip in my new old '86 F250 flatbed, 6.9, auto...
