Got the horn to work in the D350. Now to figure out where the problem is with the heater. Fan works if everything else is bypassed. Picked up a package of fuses Monday. That's a start. Now to wait for a warmer day. Not working on it outside in below freezing weather when there is no reason to...

Haven't been here for a few weeks. Been busy, plus the internet has been friendly about getting here. Going to get slapped with more winter later this week. Still got some prepairing to do but have a good start on laying out TT skirting. Been working on a Dodge Caravan to drive and finally have...

I will just go to the local spring and brake shop. They have been here for years and do mainly trucks.

Try finding one for an 82 a/c truck. My only choice will be to change some wire end locations and hope for the best.

Need to get the 82 D350 ready for state inspection. Just some electrical stuff and some reflective markers.

Yea! Its been slow here, use to see new post every day. I try checking in a couple of times a week. Often stuff of no interest or plan craziness. I have done some crazy things, but always had a reasonable spending limit.

Finding a full floater that fit's and buying wheels that you like would make way more since to me. You can get disk brakes for them now also. You might end up with a little more sprung weight but would end up with a lot stronger rear axle.

Empty parking lots are fun until they kick you out. Still private property, has something to do with insurance. Looks like I maybe stuck here this winter. Preparing for cold weather will be fun. Not really. Wind breaks are being planned. May buy a diesel heater or two before the winter is over...

But the flat doesn't retain water that freezes into ice. That likes to thaw and take windshelds out at highway speeds. There are ways to manicure a flat hood if flat is that anoying.

I have done the reverse. If you have both years it helps a lot.

Everything on the end of the axle housing must go. Axles, drums, spools and brakes all need to be changed. If the eight lug axle is single wheel 3/4 ton it maybe cheaper to just find matching wheels. Depending on what housing your trying to replace some parts may interchange some may not. If you...

The BB hood is easy to get rid of. I never really understood the appeal either.

Find one and ask would be the thing tp do. Plus really don't care if you like LMC or not as I have yet to have a problem with them.

LMC list 78-86 @ $41.95 87-93@ $94.95 So is $53.00 the only difference? Couldn't find a listing for the wing glass it's self. But the door glass list the same from 73-93. Window channel kits changed between 79&80. Someone should know what the wing seal change is at LMC as that...
