What you have is a not original high boy but a very good looking truck. I had a 77.5 copper and white xlt ranger. High boys had drum front brakes. 351m were only available after 77.5 which is not a highboy. The cab on the truck is 75 or older gas tank was in the frame rail after 75 with exterior caps 77.5 had fuel doors 2wd 73 had gas tanks in the frame rails with exterior caps. So if you do a married transfer case with that cab it will hit the cab when you go over bumps. Once again nice truck and i have several and have a really clean 79
Your wrong in on a few things
They built the highboy unit march of 1977
This truck was built in 11/76
It still has the narrow frame the reason for the tank behind the seat
351m was available for the last 77 highboys
The 76-77 had disc brakes and open knuckle from axles
They ran out of highboy beds with no fuel tank door at the end so they just put a dummy plate in
Basically it has all the good stuff with the exception of the engine
@C_CEQUIPMENT You are correct that high boys were not after made 77.5
I have never seen a 351m divorced transfer case
Never seeen a 76 with a gas tank behind the seat
I wish i could send you a picture of my 79
Once again a damn good looking truck
I have a 77 F250 high boy. With the 351 modified engine, divorced transfer case,gas tank was behind the seat . Changed it to 68 429 with a 75 Ford Bronco tank.
Ford used same rear wheel cylinders 1948-1997 on F series pick ups
Sir: The high boy has absolutely always been a favorite Ford for me. The 460 will be a monster achiever and Hunter will have a true gem. I love your channel and wait eagerly for each new one!! Thank you Clint!!

Hunter and Tucker are very fortunate toto have the parents they do? Mom tries to keep them away from Sausage fingers and on the right path, LOL? Dad is teaching them knowledge that he has built up through the years. What a fantastic pair. Thank you for taking us along again.
Hunter is one lucky kid! Working with a knowledgeable dad, a great shop, financial support… the stuff of memories!
The lesson the young man is learning is how to be a Man, patience respect,and how to be methodical are traits to be used in all aspects of LIFE ! Great job here as parents. The truck will also be an accomplishment to be fully proud of. My Dad did the same for me and I did for mine. Great family values and moral code.
I rarely comment, so this truly is special to see, thank you for sharing.

Clinton your boys are amazing mechanics learning from the best! It’s great to the whole family working together! Thanks for sharing! Kevin
Man i love the way you and your wife are taking the younger generation under the wing and teaching them true life lessons on what you have to do to make a great living in this world. So proud of you Hunter and Tucker. The best videos every.
Thanks. We are extremely proud of how hard they work even when they don’t want too ❤ thanks for watching the boys :)
Thank yall for making it worth watching.
I worked at the plant that made that OTC Revolver engine stand. I was always impressed with the heft and precision of the product. I don't see how anyone could break it or wear it out. Should last forever.
For sure
That’s great father and son time plus Clint is going to get a lot of labor out of this job lol.
Proud dad looking after son ❤
The people i admire are the ones that do this level of work at home. Its easy to do this with professional equipment and what appears to be nearly unlimited funds. This video is very useful. It is basically a list of what is needed and what is not needed but very desirable. These old trucks do need updated to survive in this age of bad fuel and Chinese parts. The original beds and cabs were made of better sheetmetal than can be had from after market suppliers today. Good job on preserving the look and quality of this old truck!
It's great to see generations working and teaching together. These boys are learning life long knowledge. Mr. C you have learned patience and are now passing along some of the best father/son memories. It's great to see families working together. Great videos also.
Thanks for the update, makes perfect sense to change out things when your that deep into a rebuild on the truck. Nice job Hunter, be a nice ride when you get it finished.
Hunter may not realize it, but he’s living some of the best days of his life right now. My dad was in the service station business growing up and we spent many nights and weekends fixing up my first vehicle. It was a ‘76 FJ40. The body was perfect, but the straight six was roached. We slid a 350 in it’s place. Had tons of fun working on it together and driving it. Sold it later in life and it has been one of my biggest regrets. Tell Hunter to think long and hard before selling this truck in the future.
I’ll buy it if he does!
I had a bit of experience with the 460 in the past, what ever you do get replacement rod bolts (ARP). I had an engine built for my inlaws, the shop that built the engine did not complete the bore on one cylinder. It knocked from the start up. They (the shop) pulled it apart and found their mistake. But after pulling that piston out and finishing the bore they reused the rod bolts. After all it had run less than 5 min. The engine lasted 1100 miles, rod bolt pulled down through the rod destroyed the engine broke the cam and crank put a hole through the side and out the pan. I was never so happy I did not do the build on that lincoln motor.
You guys crack me up - working in Crocs!!!
This is an awesome project!! Sure enjoy following this!!
Clint, I just pointed out your son, Hunter to my daughter. She made the comment to me that he looks a lot like her son (my grandson), Hunter. Of course, I have been thinking along the same lines ever since I first heard (and saw) your sons name. My grandson was born in November of 2001 and is now serving in the US Navy, out in San Diego. I enjoy watching your vids and the variety of the different equipment that you work on. Keep up the great content.
Very cool
Thanks
Tell Hunter what both Captain Kleeman and DP say…
Crocs on for safety
and
Safety second
😂
Lol
I absolutely love and enjoy you working with your sons. That is showing them the best work ethics.😊 Thank you for sharing.😊
Amazing how maintenance can change the life span 😊
Nice Friday family project video. Y'all make me smile.
That engine sure looks clean in side, someone may have been inside it! Good father right here!💯👌
That is going to be a real nice truck.
My day (a few years earlier than Clint's day) when we were Connor's age, we all wanted to bore everything 0.30 over, balanced and blueprinted, (we didn't even know what that meant) high rise manifold with polished intake ports, competition cam, dual holly 4 barrels, supercharged, headers of course, Goodyear T/A's, Cragar rims, and metal flake paint.
Fun times.
LOl 😂, I'm 69 yrs old, and I'm learning along with Hunter! I guess you're never too old to learn 😂. Thanks again Guys for a great video! You're friend The Old VT Logger
That gopro makes your ceiling fan sound like a hurricane....😂
Thanks for the videos!
That HD44 Front axle with disk brakes and the big hubs seems rare to me. All I ever seen for those big hubs were closed knuckle drum setups. Nice ol Ford!
great dad & mom, and the people that work there...the kids are learning a great trade, looking at the boys they work hard, and this what they get in return,...hard work leads to good things
Great videos guys. Good to see father and son working on a project together
Preserving a piece of history. What a great Father & son project Do it right, or don't do it all. Right Clint?
the block is real clean 460 is a great motor
Really nice when Dad can help
You got me hooked on this build ✔️
Safety third, by Mike Rowe 👍
He explained it better than I can.
When I turned 16 my dad and completely tore down a 1976 Chevy pickup to the frame and redid it for me to drive. Lots of hard work over 18 months but it was a great time and learning experience. These videos are bringing back great memories.
351M are pretty heavy, A 460 with aluminum heads and intake will be close to the same weight as a iron headed,iron intake 351m, may even be a few pounds lighter.
That certainly is one heck of a clean truck....I love that body style 73-79....my Dad has a 73 F250 highboy...a lot of good memories in that truck
Kids, they always have an attitude and have no idea how lucky his is with Dad helping him and on a Sunday.
Project is going great, can’t wait to see the 460 build! I have been wanting to do this same project to my 76 Chevy 4x4!
Great job father and son team work.
Good year for gears! That's going to be one awesome truck when y'all are finished!
Awesome father son time. Good for you guys, keep it up!
Hunter is totally excited 😆
You think you had a problem removing the distributor! The distributor on my 91 F450 was seized in the block. Soaked it for three weeks with various penetrating oil but no go. Tried jacking it out carefully with a bearing splitter and a air hammer shocking it. No go. Of course it eventually broke off about 2 inches above the block. Removed the top portion of the housing and drilled larger and larger holes in the base until I could break it into pieces and wiggle them out. Finally able to remove the shaft and the remainder of the housing.
The internet says that happens quite often!
It’s always a great video when it’s a father-son collaboration.
It’s so good to see father and so working together like this. He’s learning a great skill set. Not many younger people are willing to get their hands dirty and learn something like automotive restoration. It’s also great to see y’all keeping a classic on the road. Waiting to see what y’all have in store for the motor.
well you know Clint us dads have to take care of our baby boys and girls
I think it's a great thing that you work so well with your sons and you are a very good teacher to them 😊
A guy I graduated with from high-school, his graduation present was a 1973 F100/150 with a 460 auto & locker. He put Indy tires on the rear to help with traction. He smoked tires for a LONG WAYS. It was a regular cab, long bed.
Love the Father/Son stuff !! That's how you pass down all that knowledge !!! Keep Em Coming
I see Hunter's got his crocks in two wheel drive
Nice rebuild Hunter!!!!
I did a frame up rebuild on a 75 F250 high boy back in the 80’s
Who would have thought a miss would turn into a complete restoration! Lol
This good instructors help young sons thump up,I got same with own dad give knowledge about what going on sure engine need TLC right.thanks video good report.
I hope your two boys listen and pay attention to everything you are teaching them because one day it will pay off for them big time. Love your content.
It's good to see your boys working on their own vehicle and learning. They will appreciate their vehicle and also learn a trade. Thanks for the videos
That’s awesome that truck will b priceless to him cuz him n his dad n his brother worked on it together that’s cool man
Timing set is definitely aftermarket. The OE set would have a fiber tooth cam gear.
Great stuff guys it should be very reliable for a good few years. The onsite training these boys are getting is second to none bro. Safe travels. Ken.
Hunter you are going to have a really nice truck when done. Clinton it doesn't matter on Sunday till you hurt your foot. 😅
Ford 385 engine family history. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ford_385_engine
Be proud of them boys !! Not a lot of kids out there can do anything at all close to what they have done in this video!!👍🏼 45:42
Clint you are teaching your boys right great job great video thanks
great to see you working with your son, now that he's learning the serious part of mechanical work Kevin needs to teach him how to do it with a sense of humour, he looks so serious working on his truck,great video 👏👏👏👍👍👍👌👌👌
Come on you gotta put a Pause attraction or a locker for the kid Especially with all that power, you're gonna give him that way. He can burn both tires off at the same time.
ya!! Friday Night Special !! Lov that burn out!! Coffees on!!;-)!
Looks like a very nice rebuild.
Thank you gentleman.
you are one great dad and a teacher. Keep up the good work.
Doin' it right, love it.
460 *came out for Lincoln in 1968 while the shorter stroke 429 was found in Ford cars like the Thunderbird.
It was internally balanced until Ford revised the block with slightly deeper cylinders making the D9TE (Truck Engine) block for 1979.
Retarded emissions timing was eliminated with the advent of EFI for 1988, when they started using that double roller timing set, stock.
Once a start is made on stripping a car down it seems it may be just as easy to do it all so you know how things stand - like starting from a new beginning - well done Hunter hanging in there, it will be worth it in the end. Crocks and work are not ideal - son't know why we do it.
Nice progress!
I have a 85 F250 with 1 ton everything with a 79 460 block bored 40 over
Clint, you doing a great job teaching your boys about an awesome trade! Mom is awesome as well! I look forward to watching the upcoming videos. Take care and I’ll see y’all down the road…
I'm still loving this series and look forward to the upcoming videos. I hope Hunter is able to keep this truck til he can work on it with his future son or daughter someday.
Great progress.
I had a '74 Club Cab Camper Special one time what had the same color scheme. Had the turnin' radius of Noah's ark. but I loved that ole truck. Ya'll got a peach here!
Hi clint those japanesse safety boots will get those little piggys squished everytime 😂😂. Thanks for ford friday . Cheers mate🇦🇺
Sadly, I know those trucks like the back of my hand.
Back when they were all over the place is when I was wrenching in the field.
I also have the tool that removes and replaces the brake shoe hold down springs.
I had the same truck you can put a three inch body lift on it and 17/40 16.5 under it and worked great, I had a built 390 /4speed t-85. That small drive shafts between the trans and case got rebuilt more times I could count 😂 lead foot+industrial clutch.
...go ahead and hit it like a step child... 🙂
I see everybody is bein smart, wearing their safety crocs🧐🤨😁
My first car was a 68 Buick skylark. Needed a transmission. Loved that car.
Changed tranny in feb Ohio. Had to come in every 29min to defrost fingers.
Clint, maybe you could since you got it all torn down, convert the rear axle to disk brakes. more stopping power.
How lucky! This young man is! Great teamwork! Family time! Mom, checking every once in a while! Awesome! Video! Thanks for sharing! 👌👍
With the truck being from Canada would suspect that it has more miles or more likely idle time than you think. Those last 460s were known to drop valves around 200,000 miles. I had one do it in a 97 350.
Looks to me like that engine was done right. I would roll with it. If you want a new engine, they come in new trucks, just down the street at the dealers lot!
That timing chain is a double roller, so it's after market. It is a lot better than stock, and if it's not loose, re-use it.
In Canada Ford calls this a qauilty remanufactured engine. The last time I did one it took 4 engines to get one that one that would kind of run. I remember when that high boy was in the show rooms.
I really respect you guys 👍
I was surprised that the distributor turned. Often they were seized in the engine block because the timing doesn't have to be adjusted and the factory didn't lube then when they were installed. I haven't seen one stuck the way that was.
Great father son project! Great too see and making memories clint
I like what you said Clint " At least you'll know it's right"
That’s awesome family working together!!!
That’s definitely a new timing chain. The factory one should’ve had a fiber center on the top gear. I’d reuse that double roller set. It doesn’t get much better than that one.
I enjoy watching y’all’s channel Clint. I think hunters gonna be like ole dad.
Have Hunter make a adapter for the engine stand for a cordless impact.
He is going to have one of the coolest trucks in the school parking lot.
well done dad
He got the best teacher to help him
Uncle said those rear axles are a weak point,, they use to keep spares with them there were that bad.. People would take those 1/2 worn 44 Michelins and stick em on they got at the surplus yard
Hey Clinton you seem more excited in the engine rebuild than Hunter ,but I guess Dad's still a kid at heart yeh.Cant wait to see the rebuild outcome video,s ,oh and that was a nice burn out to

You will get better flow and hps if you use the factory duelport heads on that engine
