Best thing is to go to a Spring shop. I have done many re arch with a hydraulic press, added leaves, and complete rebuilt springs. Sometimes if you re arch and don't add a heaver leaf ,they will tend to flatten out over time. You will need new center bolts and New u-bolts. if you increase the...

Thanks.

Very Nice Restore ... Where did you find /or get the rear door black out curtains ??. I have to get a set or try to fine someone to make a set for My dodge w200 ambulance.

I had a dana 24 that slipped out of 4 hi, it was a worn gear. if the gears get worn it puts an angle on them that causes them to jump out when a load is put on them .

No I dont, but I can find out. I went to a reputable parts house. If you know the guys there they should be able to get the correct one. Holly , carter , there all the same when it comes to the 2 barrels , as long as it the correct one for your vehicle. Use to be the hot rod guys like the...

I have been back working on the Dodge, finished the crosses,and markings, installed a electric winch for a spare tire lift ,to get the tire outside. it was taking up to much room inside,plus I'm getting old and it a bear to lift a 900x16 2ft up . I had an idea of using a 2000lb electric winch...

Bob what are you going to use for a door seal ?

I rebuilt mine, only to have more vaccum issues with it . it would idle but as soon as I went to give it gas it stalled. Ended up on buying a new one from the parts house. which I 'm glad I did, the one that was on the truck was the wrong carb anyway, seems it was changed with a later model...

The Sarasota National Cemetery had there Memorial Day Ceremony on May 27, 2012. I was invited to bring the Dodge to the event. There where only two vehicles allowed to the service. This is the second year for me and got an invite for next year. This year there was a fly over by 4 F16 and...

Its been a while,still working out the bugs with the fuel tanks. I went to the show at Battleship Park ,Mobile AL. had a few issues. Blew a front tire,and had to replace a fuel pump in bonifay Fl. Nothing major. Had a fun trip and look foward to many more in the ambulance.

Thank you , I did not know that even exisited. sf

{ Have you checked your VIN against the Dodge Truck sites? } What sites would have that info ?

Thanks. Since yours is like mine ,its a good chance that mine was made by Mark Body also.

I gave a call to Mark Body and Equipment in Mich. I talked to the owner , Gordon. He said that the records only whent back to "76". They put a tag on there bodies, but I haven't found one yet. He also said that there where other compaines that made ambulance bodies .Gordon thinks this truck...

Thanks for the Pics on the winch. at least I know I can change out the winch to something differant and not be altering it to much

I think the W400 had 7.50 x16. I remember seeing W400 at Lackland AFB back in 75. I got to ride in the back of one to Wilford Hall.

The tires on the Dodge where a little cracked on the sides , so rather than risk an accident,I bought some new 900 x16 NDT . ony 2 showed up the others will be here Monday.

I wish I had a Braden. Could you get a couple of shots of when the snow clears. :lol: (You know Im only busten your chops) The Koenig (my opinon) is not the strongest or most durable winch. The cast aluminum is not that strong, in fact the one on this dodge is cracked . I have to remove...

I think everthing rust in Ohio and Pa . I remember living in cleveland and it seem like every car and truck had rust on it. Of course it doesnt help with the state putting salt on the road either.This Dodge came from OKlahoma, that why its still in good shape. I haven't been able to find any...

Thanks for the compliment. I have never owned a Mopar before. Drove plenty in the Air Force. I have been " into " ambulances since I was a kid. I still remember driving by Eaton Company in Cleveland and seeing a I.H. high top Travelall ambulance sitting in the garage ,ready to jump into action...
