    I would have had to grab that old grill shell for wall art if nothing else

    The grill in the bed of that pickup was from a 60s dodge.

      In the 80's a nodular case was$500.00 out of a catalog. I found alot in 70's 4x4 f150's, and early 80's trucks where ford was clearing 9" inventory off the shelf. I found them in 2 and 4 wheel drive of early 80's

    I’m in high school as well and I’ve got a lifted ‘71 f100 on 35’s with a built 352, cammed up, open headers, 850 Holley carb which is being rebuilt by my girlfriend’s dad at the moment but besides that it runs great.
    It’s awesome to see another high schooler that wants to build something instead of waiting for mommy and daddy to find one..... Love the truck man

    The junkyards around here in Georgia (Pull-a-Part) set a wheel flat then weld another wheel vertically on to it. They use this setup at four corners. It makes for great access to the vehicle.
    Like your yard, they don't allow jacks or cutting torches.

    You guys might already be planning on it, but I would definitely plate those beams. They're beefy, but they do bend if you really beat on them without reinforcement.

    I have been using the new edge mustang v6 t5s in my last couple of builds. The 3.8 bellhousing bolts directly to a small block. You have to use a truck flywheel, clutch, and starter but other than that it works good.

    Dick move slicing the tires. How do you know what someone may or may not use. And that’s damaging the junkyards goods. Then you’re super careful taking off the build plate.

    That is a good idea craig when i start restoring my daily driver 1994 f150 ill go and collect the vin tags off of junked ford trucks. you are right that they can’t even be restored cuz once the truck is junked they delete the vin off the record and its the only tangiable.

    • @jeromewieland55
      @jeromewieland55 ปีที่แล้ว

      Shorty headers make about 2hp over a set of manifolds. I’d find a good set of long tubes because it’s not worth the money or time to do a set of shorties on anything.

  • @brianadams429
    @brianadams429 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    If i were you i'd make sure the 9" didn't have a nodular case in it. I used to go with my dad to the you pullit yards in the 80's and 90's.
    Some of 70 models that were 4x4 f150 had nodular cases, and early 80's f150 where ford was clearing shelves for 8.8, i found several over the years.

    23:51: Not busting balls, but those welds are NOT good(I'm an AWS Certified Welder and Welding Inspector). Way too much porosity and undercut. With that, usually comes lack of penetration. When you re-do the brackets, keep a couple of things in mind. If you are using flux core, you drag the wire (You slag, you drag), like stick. If you are using bare wire with a gas, push the wire. Pony up for some name brand wire (Lincoln L56 is my personal favorite). Believe me, it makes a huge difference. Make sure you have ALL of the crap off there. Don't buy the crap that you can "Burn it out", you can't. It just ends up in the weld sub-surface. Heat should be set for the tubing thickness of the axle. Wash it into the bracket if it is a bit hot for the thinner material. I've been following for a while, and I'd hate like hell to see all that hard work come to an abrupt end because one of the brackets tore off the axle housing during a spirited burnout or hard shift!

    • @Thecraig909
      @Thecraig909  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It was welded with inner shield from a welding rig and not by me because it was super last minute. I’m aware of the porosity and it will be clean the next time around.

    I wouldn't put money on it either but the grill looks like a Dodge van from the sixties. It didn't stay in the camera for long and didn't get to see the whole thing, but my guess is Dodge.

    @OtisENGINEuity 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    As someone that had a 95 Bronco for 6 years I can tell you the TTB split Dana 44 is shit on the street. It may be great at high speed out in the desert with upgraded components, but stock it SUCKS! They follow every little grove in the highway, they bump steer like crazy, they try to turn on their own when you let off the gas.. I will say though it is hilarious to turn off O/D and floor it and watch the hood lift like 2 feet and then drop when you let off just because the weight transfer unloads the front suspension and lets it droop.

    • @brianadams429
      @brianadams429 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      My 94 Bronco when i bought it from a friend, at intersections where pavement changed highth at the curb would wander if you didn't put in counter steer. Well i replaced the smoked draglinks/tie rods. The worn out worm gear in the steering box was the major part of that issue. When replaced the steering box, no more wacky slack.
      Old box i could move the steering wheel from close to 10 to 2 with no tire movement.

    Bad move cutting the side wall of them tires. Were they a set of 4? Even if not they were a set of 2. Not sure about in California but were im at that was a usable tire for a few miles anyway. I have brand new set of mud tires for my truck I use only to go to the mud runs. The other 11 months of the yr I buy cheap used tires like those & there good enuf to burn up showing off by smoking your tires for your buddys or flying up & down the gravel roads all over the county just out being a terror. Its alot cheaper than buying new mud tires every yr. You could have cut the valve stem.
