brake drums

After finally rounding up some extra cash for brake drums, I am unable to locate any for my 68 D-100. Autozone and Napa both say they dont have them and cant get them. Anyone have any ideas that would help????

Re: Dash Shifter pictures for Seff

Would you mind posting some pics of the shifter cable routing, I have the shifter but no cable. Have no clue where it runs from the shifter.

Re: This truck is braking me!

I guess that would be useful information, its a 68 D-100, I don't know the brake size off hand. I will have to make a trip to the garage to investigate. Funny how I have to make the truck stop before I can make it go.

This truck is braking me!

I could use some help here, I need to replace the brake bars for the emergency brake. I found that new ones are not available. There are some universal ones to be had, but I would rather stick with the real deal. I am hoping that someone might have spares hanging around and feel inclined to help a b...

Re: Running hot?

The lower hose is new and does not have the internal coil. Looks like I wont be able to get back at it til after Christmas without getting the wife in an uproar plus its turning cold again. Best bet is to wait until I have plenty of time to troubleshoot without causing any holiday drama.

Re: Running hot?

The new rad is for a 73 D-100 with a 383 same size rad just differant mounts and hose locations, theres probably and inch and a half gap between fan and rad with no shroud. The fan is if I recall seven blade clutch fan. The upper hose felt like it was full but wasnt really all that hot. The lower ho...

Running hot?

OK here's my story, trying to get the ole truck running I needed a radiator and bought a new one. The lower hose had to be switched from driver side to passenger.

Re: Header question again

From the pics I have found of these headers mounted on a block it appears that the bell shaped engine mounts will be an issue. Perhaps I can just swap them out to the later model mounts and all will be well. Or maybe I will just keep the oem manifolds and worry about it at a later time.

Header question again

I was debating on a set of shorty headers for my 68 big block since I have the cross member situation. Has anyone used these instead of cutting the cross member out? If so I would like to know the brand and part number if possible. I found the set below, but I am not sure if they are made to clear t...

Re: help identify this wheel

Here is some pics that were requested with the trim ring off. The low light didn't give me the best pic, but hopefully you can get the idea of what it looks like. http://i137.photobucket.com/albums/q229/averagejoe201/IMG_0803.jpg http://i137.photobucket.com/albums/q229/averagejoe201/IMG_0804.jpg htt...
