Matt,
For a 15 x 5 rim, the manual lists a 6.70 x 15 and a 7.10 x 15 tire. A
good tire shop will convert these sizes into the new nomenclature. I do
believe that the 225/75 x 15 is close to what you'll need.

Matt, There's Jim McGee ["Jims68"] in NJ, Billy Tuttle ["LunaticFringe"] in SE NY near West Point, Mark DuVerger ["MarkD"] up near Sturbridge Village, MA, Walter Bounds ["Walter651"] in Conn, Frank ["10 Second Deuce"] down in Drexel Hills, PA, George Geissinger ["GEORGE!!"] down near Wilkes Barre(?)...

The 3:55 combined with the A745 was a pretty standard set up but may not get you the low r's you want for the highway. The 3:23 combined with the NP435 [with 6:68 1st] basically gives you 3 normally used gears with enough grunt to get a load on its way starting from 1st. You're kind of caught betwee...

Upstate NY eh?!?.... I'm wondering where exactly now.... maybe up northeast of me. I'm about as far northwest as you can get in the state. It doesn't look too promising for a trip to the southwest at the moment Trey.... I have a family re-union in Iowa in late August that we're tying in with a trip ...

Glen, I'm refering to the item that will replace the "Tee" which is located on left frame rail by the steering box. I've heard it called a metering block, junction block, proportioning valve, etc.. You're not in any way advertising ignorance... that's the reason these sites exist... to help get answ...

Glen, I used a '68 master cylinder on my '61 D200 along with a metering block out of a '71 W200 I had parted out. I used a smaller diameter line than the original used on the single res. system, figuring a res. dedicated to the front and the back would work sufficiently with the smaller diameter lin...

Great stuff going on here Scott! I applaud all of your efforts!
