Well, They cant seem to find a radiator for a truck with AC at autozone / advance auto, The best they can tell me is they have one with a 22in core. However the radiator in my truck roughly measures 26 x 18 x 1 3/4
from my research, the closest thing I can find to these measurements...
The Radiator in my '77 M880 needs replaced, the manual says it's a "super cooling system" witch some guys on another forum say is a radiator out of a truck with AC or a pre 1972 radiator.
Can anybody here confirm this ?
Or have the actual part numbers for the radiator and water pumps ...
The switch was mounted in the dash, just to the right of where the factory radio would go.
The front " cat eyes " were mounted just above the factory headlights.
The " main blackout light " was mounted in the grill, just to the right of the left turn signal.
The rear "cat eyes " were mounted...
It was not uncommon for the military to go purchase trucks at the local dealership as they needed them, Dodge was a prefered choice in the 70's because of the M880 / M890 contract. The military motor pools were use to working on them and had a few they could use as parts. what kind of info are...
Tomorrow is the only day I have off from work, would not be able to help during the weekdays until after 5:00pm. How long were you sitting by the road ? Keep us posted on your progress..
I am running 265/75R16's on my '77 and I do not notice a wobble on my truck. I would jack up the front end and check for worn wheel bearings and suspension parts...
Some of these trucks have a reverse, and some have a standard rotation gear box. you need the one that mounts on the plate and has the pitman arm pointing down like the manual box. How many thousandths of an inch are we talking ?
This is true, to a point. These issues may or may not be related. The circuit breaker may be being tripped simply because of its age. A "weak" circuit breaker by itself should not cause the battery to go dead, but it will cause all the lights to keep going off and on by itself like you...
Nothing special about the bed removal. I suggest that once you get it off to pull the fuel sending unit from the top of the tank and inspect it, it may save you from having to drop the tank at a later time...
If equipped with blackout lights, the switch has an internal thermal circuit breaker. Something is causing it to trip and as posted above cleaning the grounds is a good place to start.
Also check to see if the factory wiring has been hacked into, sometimes the factory turn signal switch goes...
Does anybody have a picture of the battery tray on the right side ? I want to see how it is mounted. I need to add a second battery to my truck.
Many Thanks,
Now if it was a CUCV I would say :
The fact that it is 4WD = $1,000.
The fact that it's a CHEVY = - $1,500.
The fact that it is an MV = $1,000.
The fact that it MIGHT make it out of the driveway
= 39.99
For a grand total of : $539.99 :whistle:
