Who had March 14th?

[KrazyKarl02]

My understanding of the newer ford internal reg altenators is that they are simpler to hook up, however the one everyone likes (the 94 up truck and mustang alternator, I have one in the Klogger, Seacreast has one in the Jeep and Garrett has one in the EB) is much more prown to failure with dust, mud, etc...

All that being said the stock ford truck alt is like 90 amps, which brings the suck when you run a winch! The 3G is like 135 or so, much better.

if he doesn't take those 33's i want them. where are they located? even if he gets them i will probably end up delivering them to him ***

They are in New Caney. Hotpocket, you have a pm.

[breckboarder55]

You can get a re-man from Oreillys for like 90 bucks, and get some back from the "core fee".

Seacreast has one in the Jeep .

I love you Karl

What kind of shocks are you looking for? This thing has no lift right? Why do you need new shock? Are there any on it now?

[85cj7]

Rockauto has some super cheapos at $10 each for motorcraft brand and Monroe at $20 each.

Oreillys also has the same Monroe shocks for the same price available in store. For $20 each you can't get much cheaper and Monroe are not entirely ****.

So you had to take him yours plus a core? Or was he considering yours the core?

Shocks that will accomodate a 4" (ish) lift. I'm just trying to gather the parts so that it will all be done at once, and the truck will not be in pieces for a long period of time (hopefully.) Shocks are the last piece to my puzzle.

edit - it has shocks now, they are terrible

[Fredo]

[85cj7]

Got a new radiator today, thank you mom!

Found a used radiator at this hole-in-the-wall place in Dickinson. The guy said he had it sitting there for two years. It came out of a 76 model Ford pickup; he said it was cooling a 460. He only used it for 3 months.

The guy even painted it for me... all for $100

[bcolman]

since when do you paint radiators?

[Eckert]

since when do you paint radiators?

when you charge someone $100, its makes them feel better about themselves.

Off to spray bomb all my parts!
