Great ! Thank You Sir! I just ordered. Appreciate your help. :salut I tried Amazon, but could not confirm bore size etc.. I was leery because of of the supposed correct MOPAR range of "years" parts. I always save part boxes , but original slipped away. Probably will find tomorrow :lol: Nice to know ...

Hello all, haven't been around here for quite some time! Sorry many bike projects, and a 20 acre farm haha, ANYWHO! My throw out bearing bit the dust on my 68 w200. I can NOT for the life of me , find the darn thing anywhere! Thought I had found the correct bearing. Was just gonna replace the bearin...

Give Vintage Power Wagons a try.

Not sure yet haven't taken apart, might need truck in a week and didn't want to pull apart till i had all the parts. Was gonna get both ujoints offered at NAPA and just return un used ones. Forgot about vintage! Will look thanks! Jim

Hey Guys, truck failed inspection. Needs new king pins. And i reckon I should change U joint while in there. Anybody have the info on w200 pins and joints? I can't find. NAPA no luck. Everything else only half ton parts..... Thanks!

Wow! That looks awesome! Good job!

Hi all! Hope everyone had a great holiday season. Here at our neck of the woods , it's been bitter cold. Have been using my 68 w200 everyday for work. Just wanted to say again, how glad I am i switched my points out for that electronic ignition kit! Went out the other day , the temp was zero. Pulled...

Hmmm , well top speed on my truck with the 488 spicer is 50. So maybe I'll just cruise at around 47 and take a little more time.

Thanks Rodger, I was hoping you would post about this. Do you know if the autozone clutch #922706 is the shortest one? I had more rows added to my radiator so maybe this is why it looks like it will be too snug. Will the clutch still work if I lack a shroud? Hey Jim, did that clutch work? I am driv...

marsocho, Hey I had many weird issues with my w200 when i first got it years ago. I replaced the carb , and also installed a solid state ignition. Very easy to install and man the truck starts right up now and runs great. It is a Mallory ignition jc whitney # 953527 65 bucks. Worth it even if not yo...

John, crawled under first light today , expecting the worst. Here, the reason the 4x4 shaft would rotate all the way was that a bearing cup actually jammed into the center of the slip yoke . Musta flew off the drive shaft. that was also the rattle i was hearin. the lever pin on 4x4 *#%^ lever sheare...

Well John, got it all done was running really nice! Took the the wife to sonic drive in and drove around a bit. Coming up hill on highway , goin about 45 heard a BANG, and saw somethin tumblin down the road. My drive shaft! haha Only thing i can think happened was the 4 wheel shift lever was pretty ...

John, have everything about set, but one question... does the sliding yoke, or the solid drive shaft come off the transmission? Can't find a pic in any of the many manuals i have. It WAS set up when i bought truck with the solid shaft connected to the transmission. Want to make sure i don't screw up...

Well first light today I went out and looked under truck and i think i see my problem. When i replaced all the u joints i marked the yolks etc.. And put everything back the way they came off. But never bothered to make sure yolks were ALIGNED in the first place.... :banghead So figure that is the pr...

Thanks guys, all good advice and will do! Jim

Thaks john, Honestly cant remember if i did bushing, also not realy sure what "clocking" means. I did post awhile back that truck really jumpy when is 4wheel even in dirt. The clutch does chatter a bit when just sitting :thinking . Maybe i should just replace whole clutch. I did replace pressure pla...

Hi folks. Just got truck inspected it passed. After 4yrs it was a relief. :lol: My problem is it has been a long while since ive had truck on the road. Kinda hard to pin down but truck is really noisy, kind of shudders when shifted. Seems better in Higher gear. Clutch is grabbing well and shifts wel...

just called NAPA to get price on clutch for my 68 w200. 174 bucks. Thats a complete kit. Napa actually has alot of old swepty parts.

Wow that looks great! Good idea! Jim

Ben , not to get personal... But is your wifes problem sciatic pain? I had a crippling case this dec. After awhile i couldn't even walk anymore , had to lean hard on cane, just to even move. Even started to figure out if i could do my usual job, or switch to something else. Tried the spinal shots (n...

Wally , I kinda like that crutcfield, I just wish they didnt have that digital display. O well no biggy. Yeah i saw that converter thing before, pretty cool , but i don't even have an old A.M. radio in the truck.Thanks again for lookin for me. Jim :salut P.S. I also think you can do something with a...
