Hi all,
Just picked up my first truck a few months ago, a 1987 Dodge D150. 318, automatic, 2WD longbed. I've been searching for a good place for info on Mopars, and really happy to have found this forum. The truck: it's truly rust free, was lowered by the previous owner, but has had some serious mechanical issues. I solved a few already, but many more to go. Drove it around long enough to pick up a free motorcycle with it! And then a head gasket blew, haha. Figure it's probably best to pull the motor and do all the gaskets and freeze plugs, etc with it. Though if anyone wants to persuade me otherwise, I am all ears. Also hoping to replace the 2 barrel with a 500-600cfm 4 barrel and a better flowing intake.
I'll be posting progress in the restoration/build threads sometime soon.
