Re: Draining Coolant
Okay maybe it's just me but if you have had your engine rebuilt you should not need to use a product that has "better heat transfer" etc... If you have problems after a fresh rebuild your problem with overheating will most likely be your radiator. A 50/50 mix of a standard coolant and dist...

Re: battery disconnect switch
For a while I had one that mounted on the positive post of the battery going to ground. It was one of the standard no frills ones from the vendors. However it caused problems restricting the electron flow while cranking the engine over resulting in the engine turning over slower than it should. I re...

Re: Paint colors, ANd mirror placement.
Hello and welcome to the forum. If you are going to enter your truck into fine point judging you will get deductions for having a non factory paint color. I'm not aware of a class that specifically is for non standard paint colors. In my opinion it's your truck and you can paint it what ever color t...

Re: Universal Joint & drive Shaft Mounting Help
I'm not familiar with the specific u-joints of the 31 AA but in the 28/29 u-joints side to side play is fine. It is the rotational play (slop) that is not a good thing.

Re: '28 AA on eBay
That truck is pretty rough. With having the dual high the odds are that it is a high speed rear end. However judging by the condition of the truck I wouldn't have much faith that it would be in decent shape.

Re: #6 Cross Member
Hi Dave, Wow, this is great news! I would be very interested in the #6 cross member. Do you have a solution for the stamped AA-88141 reinforcement d2 bracket? Mine are pretty beat-up so I was also working to have those made. Where are you sourcing your rivets from? I've looked everywhere for the 9/...
