Greetings from a fellow Montanan! Just came across your channel. I’ve got a 79 f150 that I’m going to start freshening up this spring so,it’s good to see someone else going through the process. Good luck with on your journey. They are great tucks. I’ll never part with mine!
As Kevin Bailey said, the spring is for behind the door panel to help seal for the window crank. . It possibly holds a flat plastic washer or the paper against the back of the door panel.
Are you kidding me? It's like this channel is a biography of my life! When my first son was born I was able to by y first Ford back, 78 f150 Ranger, very option for 78. Definitely giving me motivation to get my kids out to the garage and get it back on the road.
You chose a straight thru muffler. It's going to be loud. The tailpipes will help a little. But when you get on it, you and all your neighbors will know. If it is too loud, throw a decent length glass pack in each pipe before the muffler. It will help tone it down a little more. And if you ever need to change out the front brake calipers. A good cheap up grade are the mid to late 70's T-bird Front calipers. They fit right in place of the truck calipers but have larger pistons.
I see a couple of answers to what that spring is? Maybey I'm mistakin but I thought it looked like a spring from inside front locking hub? Aftermarket hubs don't have the spring.
@@cprgarage3206 IM waiting to hear what you GAINED by goin dual 2.5 when your 250hp engine only needs 1-2.5 pipe? Sure you GAINED extra work, extra expense, extra crowded underneath but was it worth the EXTRA 7 hp at 5700rpm?

Never should have sold this one and I never will again

Sounds good, there is no such thing as too loud. Good tip about 02 bung.
Thats such an awesome truck! Very cool!

The spring goes behind your steering wheel pad
I like the Greatfull dead jam too.
I miss my 96' F350 Crew Cab.
I did a double take on the removal of the exhaust. I use that same song on my Channel frequently.
I heard it on another channel first, Brew2l or DD Speed Shop maybe...
38 Special today. Hold on loosely.

Summit racing years ago! See the pic in my profile? They were on the orange truck years before

@@WilliamMunny-d8s I swear if you say needed back pressure and I'll lose low end torque lol
@@cprgarage3206 maybe, maybe not but your truck has about 250 hp correct?
