Did a quick Google of "GMC 302 inline 6 head gasket" and came up with a good one right away. Classicpartsusa.com had a whole gasket set for the 302 for 97 bucks. Not to bad to me since you would get every gasket for the motor in one shot. Worth the hundred bucks I would think. Part ID# is...

"Pootrica " has probably had an interesting life no doubt. Wonder if at some point in her history she was rolled and her cab swapped. Either during her military life or shortly after. Most likely during her green service an not her more recent (brown lol) service since the numbers are only 5...

I believe you have to be a member with an upgraded membership. If you just have the membership everyone can sign up for I think it doesn't allow you to post in classifieds. I tried to before as well and wasn't able to.

It should say on your data plate on your dash beside your passenger door and glove box. Mine declares my truck as such: TRUCK-CARGO 2 1/2 TON 6X6 M135 CDN. 13-3-1956. Ahhh. Yellowknife. Lived there for little over a year way back in my young years. Worked the lounge at the airport and for Medic...

Hank, your bobber with the 6bt is the coolest and is what has made me want to do it to my M135. Got the motor sitting in chains in the engine bay but stopped there due to money and lack of confidence in my fab skills. Want to us my future BOBBER as my service rig which will get a fair amount of...

Plowboy beat me to it. Was gonna say check to make sure your springs are all there and see if they are weak. Another thing to try is pull the drum and have someone hit the brake peddle. See if they stay "locked" With out the drum in place. If they do that rules out a bad drum. Not sure I...

Back spacing is measured typically from the hub face(point of contact with brake drum) to the outer lip of the rim where the tire seats. Easiest way to measure your back spacing is to place the rim, with out tire on, flat on a level surface. Hub facing up. Measure with your tape through the...

The differences could be in models. I know that the M135/211 have a standard rim width of 7.50 inches. The only difference between the two models is the offset of the hub. The M211 has an offset of 6 and 3/16th inches while the M135 has an offset of 5 and 1/8th, I believe. The rim that is dated...

Sigh..... The continued argument of bobbed over stock. Yes stock is better for mud and goop. Bobbed is better at tight turn and rough terrain. You wanna mud bog leave it stock. Wanna rock crawl, Bob. What it all comes down to is owner preference and intended use. If you don't like the look of...

There are a couple guys in the "deuce modification and hotrodding " forum that sell modified Hemmt rims or plates machined for our hubs so you can do it yourself. A fellow by the handle of Peashooter sells adaptor plates. Great quality and reasonable prices. Check out that forum, lots of great...

Sounds to me that you have to rebuild the carb or clean it out at the least. At the least from sitting for those few years it probably has some gunk clogging the float or debris is blocking the flow needle. I had an old Harley that gave me grief like that. Once I tore the cab apart I found some...

If I remeber correctly that rig has 1200 flotation tires on it. No suspension upgrade or anything. Also at the end of that video the truck stops abruptly because it blew the tranny. Lifting on of these would require some blocks on the axles which most tend to shy away from due to safety...

Can't deny that logic. The fresh paint will also keep the cancer from spreading to quickly till you can repair them. That really is some awesome detail around the Windows. Nice and clean. Sure wish my phone would bring the cloverdale paint info into focus. Really love that color. Gracie's...

Well I got a huge surprise from the wife and kids today! They bought me a truck! It is an international 1600/1700 single axle rig. I have been looking at it for quite some time but never did anything about it since our finances are supremely tight. Well behind my back the wife and kids bought...

Plowboy, if you like the dents in the doors, leave them. My preference, before that awesome new paint was applied I would have cut those dents out and replaced with new sheet metal. Trying to pull the dents out would never work. They look pretty deep. Unfortunately same would be said for you...

Lookin awesome Plowboy!! Be sure to keep enough paint left over so that come spring you can shoot a touch up coat of paint in spring. Light sanding to buff out the leaf marks and water spots, dust with final coat of paint and she then looks like a she just drove off the assembly line. Heck I...

Sounds cool. Would love to know more about the air brake set up. Bus donor used, modifications necessary, and of course pictures once you figure out how to do that. If a guy was handy and has read the threads about putting 5 ton axles under a deuce, a company nearby sells S cam set ups complete...

Doesn't look bad at all. Just needs some love.����

Special T, my rig will mostly be an on road rig. I would need to have DOT approved rims. We have lots of DOT random stops and inspectors who like to give guys a hard time if they even look at the DOT the wrong way. I agree that A3 rims have a very shallow bead height. Makes me nervous. I am...
