Re: 4x4 conversion

That being said, is there a better way to do the 4x4 conversion than using the 63? If you are NOT a purist, I would look for a mid 80s Dodge 4x4 donor truck. Disk Brake front axle. That is what I did on my '69 Slant 6 4x2. I used a 413 i had laying around used axles, transmission and transfer case ...

Re: D400 Wheel cylinders and hardware

I know this will not help much but on my 67 D400, the front and rear wheel cylinders are absolutely different. The front only has 1 wheel cylinder per side (assuming it is a double piston)and the rear has 2 wheel cylinders per side (assuming single piston). I am in the process pulling the rear hubs ...

Re: D400 Brake bleeding process

Does your D400 have a frame mounted vacuum tank? My W600 does. Also has a vacuum gauge in the dash hooked to it. My 65 W500 didn't have the vacuum tank, but did have the hose up into the cab. Since that truck didn't run I can't tell you what the hose was for. Bucky No vacuum tank, just a frame moun...

D400 Brake bleeding process

Hi, does anyone know if there is a special bleeding process with trucks that have the frame mounted booster master cylinder or is it the regular RR - LR - RF - LF process? Also, there is a hose that runs from the frame mounted booster that vents (or sucks) in the cab. Mine is on the driver side next...

Re: Different master cylinder ?

you can find the 4 bolt 1" bore master cylinder of you look under 1968 d100 w/383. Not sure why that is not listed for the 69-71. It might be that your current setup is not factory and some PO replaced the vacuum booster and master cylinder from an older truck??? I am by no means an expert historian...

It sounds like you have already decided to replace the carb but i just had the same issue and it ended up being clogged jets.
