Yeah I’m thinking they went light duty, but I did read that you could drill out the smaller flywheel to adapt the heavy clutch? Not sure on that tho

I have to rip out the trans and the transfer case so when I do I’m going to replace everything back to heavy duty

Transmission I’m replacing with a rebuilt unit and the transfer I’m going to rebuild cause it is leaking out of the front output

In what world is that possible? :-)

I can say without qualification that HemiEd posts the coolest cars and has some very deep knowledge of cars. :-)

So little update on the 77

Need to adjust carb because it is running pretty rich..so while I’m waiting on my carb kit and rebuild kit to arrive I decided to change plugs figuring they are fuel soaked

The asshole who last changed the plugs crossed the threads in 3 of the plugs, so guess what guys. The motor I got from Sauto, has Vortec heads on it and they are now going on my old K20. Ordering a new Edelbrock intake to fit a carb and to fit the new heads.

Also my daughter helped me bleed the brakes, back drums need to be completely replaced but the fronts I was able to get pressure into them and they have held. So hopefully after new heads go one and carb adjustments and new intake I can get it driving around the property

Are the rears leaking or did the proportioning valve stuck?
[Reply]

They are just froze up, the last inspection sticker in the window is from 02 so I believe it was sitting for a long time. Had moss growing on the truck so a lot of froze up or rusted solid

Gotta replace them then.

Get you a can of kano kroil and soak everything down too
[Reply]

Also you're gonna have the exhaust loose, time for headers...
[Reply]

**** all that man! You know what time it is!

Yeah I’m going to completely replace everything related to the rear brakes, sprayed all I could find with PB Blaster yesterday. Going to hit it again tomorrow, and I’m going to get a couple cans of that Kano too now.

Headers are definitely going to be going on since it is going to be out of the truck

Might as well plan on lines too. Did you get fluid back there ever?
[Reply]

I couldn’t hardly get the bleeders to crack open so I just stopped messing with them. Lines will be replaced as well. LMC has pre bent ones and I’m just going to order them and all the brake parts. Along with floor boards and everything else I need from them. Try to stay as original as possible

If you are going that route I would buy the whole line kit and kill it all at once

God Damn I want to buy a little bus so bad.

There's one on the south side of 7 hwy two or three doors down from where dart God keeps, or used to at least, his boat.

Its awesome, mid length, probably mid 50s.

I would throw a 12v cummins in it and roll coal. I could pull my cars on a trailer and make the bus like a little camper in the back.

Its got a really nice patina on it. Im jonesing
