Re: disc brakes

Yes. Manual disk brakes work great. You have to have the correct size master. I was using manual before I added a power booster. I may even go back to get that firmer brake feel. If you don’t have leg issues I say stick with manual. Contact Dr Diff, Cass will have everything you need for the rear. I...

Re: Source for poverty "dog dish" hubcaps? 68 D100

Howdy New owner here. Can someone link a source for dog dish hubcaps for my 15 inch wheels? The car versions are different, correct? Thanks! There are two different caps so you'll need to measure to find out which one you need. I think they're either 8" I.D. or 9" I.D. :thinking If your wheels are ...

Adding seatbelts to 1964

My wife really wants me to put seatbelts in the 64 and it’s probably a good idea. I find myself reaching for one when I get in. Will the standard belt loop for the shoulder work? You know the triangular shaped loop on the cab above your shoulder. I’ve looked at the Wesco and a seatbeltplanet few oth...

Re: Buddy Buckets Install

I got the seats installed tonight. Too late to get pictures but, I’ll update my build thread. I put the frame in first and I’m glad I did. I had to adjust the buckets and the frame a couple times to get it where I wanted it. One obvious thing is the buckets are higher than the bench. Maybe it’s beca...

Buddy Buckets Install

My buddy seats are finished. I have a few questions. 1) Do I bolt seats to the frame and install together or what’s the procedure? 2) Is there a liner of some type in the buddy box or just painted? It looked like something was glued into it at one point. 3) Anything else I need to know? Thanks and I...

Bench or buckets?
bench. was hoping to find someone reproing stock designs.
I’m having my bucket/buddy done by https://www.ricksupholstery.com
He has some Dodge patterns even though he is known for chevy trucks. Might ask. They are nice folks but, don’t get in a hurry. Craig

Ones from a Jeep will work too. Don’t know if they come in amber. I wanted clear. Craig

Re: 70 D100 Rear Axle Flip

Western Chassis 2104 is what I used. If you flip the axle with weak springs it will hit the frame and you will have to c-notch. You will have to check pinion angle and driveshaft length. Most kits move the axle. Search here for other lowering options. Meaning springs and mount moves. :2cents Craig
