Same color as my 62 short bed here in Oklahoma. I'd sure be interested in it also, if the finder gets to buy it and doesn't want to be the keeper. Ha

Hey guys my 62 D100 doesn't have any door armrests in it nor does it look like it came from the factory with them. I have a couple doors off a 64 that came with armrests. What year did they start putting them in the pickups or was it a option? Also what year did they start with seat belts, mine also...

Looks Great!

I used Scotts IFS and have been very impressed with it so far, will have to make motor stands and notch the frame a little for the rack to clear but very impressive kit that Scotts sells.

Hey guys been taking my 62 out for its first test runs and I'm dealing with a horribly noisy speedometer at the moment, was wondering if I unhook it at my 727 trans for the time being will I have a trans leak occur there when driving or is it a dry area with no fluid at needle end? Thanks!

Brandon

Great Info soopernaut, thanks a lot!!!!!!!!!

Ha didn't know I was going to get griped out, was just wanting some advice. Thanks for all the help, I went with the single reservoir cause it was new and didn't think of it causing an issue and the way Im going to drive the truck in rural western Oklahoma with not much traffic and a all new brake s...

Ya I know that it would be better with a dual master cylinder reservoir, but I'm not the best about flaring brake lines, ha. Was wanting to just stick with the single reservoir if I could. Thanks.

Brandon

No their new braided steel lines to the calipers in front and the rubber line at rear brakes is a new one. Thanks.

Been working on my 62 D100 and finished my Scotts IFS swap in front and have taken it for a couple drive and have noticed the front brakes which are now disc seem to not want to release fully and my brake pedal is very stiff with little travel. Have new rear drum brakes that are adjusted properly. H...

Hey guys working on my 62 d100. Came with slant 6, 3 on the tree, now putting a la318, 727 trans in it. Looked up a part number for a new speedo since I'm doing the swap and came up with a Napa # 615-1606 that says it fits D100s from 1963-1971. 87" long. Sound like it would work on the 62? Thanks Br...

Had a few questions about my Scotts Ifs install on my 62. The install is in the works now and I will post pics when its completed. Thanks guys!

Yes I did buy the whole truck, 85 longbed. So I did get all the brackets, this truck came with a/c and p/s. And all I am going to be running is a alternator. Thanks for all the suggestions. i did find a supplier that has alternator mounting brackets for mounting a alternator to the aluminum water pu...

Hey guys just picked up a donor 1985 d150 318/727 combo to replace my slant 6 in my 62 d100. My question is that I'm not going to be running any power steering or a/c but the alternator on the 85 is not lined up with the water pump pulley, set too far back. Should I replace the water pump with a uni...

Thanks John but do brackets to frame face the rear of vehicle or face forward. Think it offsets the crossmember a lil forward or back depending on which way you face them? Thanks

Brandon

62 D100. Thanks
