That's definitely the steering box leaking. You can see it running down the inside of the frame. Run by a John deere tractor dealership and pick up 4 tubes of corn head grease. You will use 3.5 tubes to fill the steering box. Pull the drain plug on the bottom of the steering gear. Then you...

The problem I find is paint makes the imperfections even more noticeable. At least when they are that rough. Don't use flux cored wire. Too much slag and spatter.

Just grab a mig welder and clean those marks up. Shouldn't be very hard.

The adjustment is on the throttle linkage where it goes into the ip. I forget exactly how to set it.

Drown it in kroil? Might help break the carbon down.

The caster fix will help with the wandering. I run 35 psi in the front and 30 psi in the rear of my truck. Most people don't realize they run their 395's or other large radials at unnecessarily high tire pressures. If you have the runflats they can also cause an imbalance. In rare cases...

I got ya covered

It will be stupid easy with the engine out of the truck.

Possibly. As of yet I don't see why I can't do that.

Hmm. When's a good weekend?

I'd love to but I have taken even more pieces off lol. Slowly getting the rust fixed. Just been busy putting my work over rig together to have time for my deuce.

The year model of a deuce is honestly irrelevant. Look for the features you want. Check the mechanical condition of the truck. Such as leaks, odd noises, things that don't work. Also, check the cab corners and rocker panels for rust damage.

Wanna come paint mine lol.

That would be a sure fire way to tell. But if your compressor still builds pressure and you have excessive blow by I honestly don't think it will be the air compressor. More likely your engine piston rings are worn. If by chance it is your air compressor just replace it. If you look...

The engine oil that lubricates the compressor drains through the bottom directly into the crank case. When the rings in the compressor wear out the blowby from the compressor is vented into the crankcase.

That is considerable blow by. My truck has almost zero. Even on a cold morning nothing comes out of my slobber tube. Since its running good and not using oil I wouldn't worry about it much since the fix would be to re-ring the pistons.

Slip yoke towards t case.

The a3's routed the drag link exhaust back to the air cleaner for fording purposes.

It's a toss up between gringeltaube and billw.

Either order peashooters brake line kit or go to a local hose shop and have some usa made rubber ones made (what I did). The replacement ones sold by most vendors are Asian made and of terrible quality.
