Well then, I take that back, I'm the youngster here. Nine or ten trips less than you. Thanks for making me feel better (younger). 👍

Strange, typically it is the other way around. If it IS fuel injected then the learning begins, carburetors are easy. You must be a youngster?

Post is 8 years old. Posting member hasn't been back to this forum for 8 years, and WILL NOT see your reply. Why do you continually dig up all the ancient posts?? Check the dates once in awhile.

Sorry, that's NOT a Dude, dude.

Hey, how about that! We're now back to talkin' "Trucks" again on FTO!

that on fortrucksonly.com we have a forum header like this?

60 years of owning, driving, wrenching on Mopars of all makes/models and I've never heard of an 8 3/8 rear differential. But then, considering all the other typo errors in your post, I guess what you really meant was an 8 3/4" rear?

Pipe thread to pipe thread = hardware store.

Unless you've owned the truck from day 1, hard telling what some previous owner has done to it over the years. Previous owner had the speedo out for some reason, lost the original mounting screws, put it back in with whatever he had laying around, and then wondered why it wouldn't work anymore...

Simple solution, shorter screws.

Once again, 4 year old thread with the OP disappearing 1 day after asking his question never to be seen or heard from again. Very common on this forum, unfortunately.
