I believe they can be removed & reused. With a fender off, you could work around the inside edge with a chisel, or use a small diameter punch & pop them thru, and the re hammer them tight in the new fender. pic of the type of rivet they are, or do a little measuring & source out some...

"I then went to bleed the front brakes and couldn't get any pressure built up, even with the truck running and pumping the pedal with the bleeders open." Not gonna work that way.

Hmm, I'll have to check the parts trucks when it gets light out again. I believe they are metallic.

My '77 M880

The only specific in the historical plate rules is " A vehicle registered with a historical or authentic plate cannot be used for routine, day-to-day transportation." The plate law this thread is about has nothing to do with the Historic Plate use regulations. 74M35A2 any type of...

Walker used to have a listing for it. but like was just said, have an exhaust shop make it. I know that there is one of those pipes somewhere around here, but it's buried somewhere. I've used all NOS pipes before. I spent less than $200 at a shop for the whole exhaust on one of mine. All...

It's early but mark those calendars for 8, 9 & 10 July 2016

Toe in toe out no matter death wobble is a result of something being loose or worn. Silly low miles on a 30 year old truck doesn't matter, something (or multiple somethings) is loose or worn. You mentioned just the right front tire jumping, any DW I've ever encountered shakes both tires, check...

U haul will not rent it to you if you tell them what your plans (really) are. I also don't think they will allow you to tow it with anything less than a 3/4 ton truck. Got a 'Plan B'?

I know a guy looking for the Chevy set here in Michigan Chris Causley at http://www.mimths.org/ I made a drawing for fabing the M880 ones

One of the wires on the coil is the power from the ignition and the other goes to the distributor. Never messed with a Pertronix, but it sounds like you removed your power wire. The vacuum advance is in a different position????? then your timing is also off.

Thanks for sharing. Nice find!

I have used 16" Ford rims, IIRC they were a little wider than the dodge 16" steelies. The center hole from the Chevy's is too small @ 4-3/4, Need 4-7/8 to clear the rear hub.

Common military thing, from what I have experienced.

Most all truck spring shops can make U bolts, In my experience they cost way less than buying them prepackaged.

They were originally stickers, any vinyl graphics place could make replacements. Just give them the size.

The military Dodge has 28v generators in addition to the 12v sytem Those versions had 3 batteries, 1 for the truck & 2 for the 24v radio system (your typical 12v system has a 14v alternator and the 24v system has a 28v generator.)

Welcome from a northern M880 hoarder... You'll need a 78/79 steering column to go with the rest of those steering parts. or cut & weld yours. the 77 has a reverse rotation steering box the 79 is std rotation, it can work, just have to change all the steering parts with it.

I have way too many vehicles & misc spare parts mainly because "that's a really good deal I'll take it!" I may be getting better! Yesterday I passed on a free wheel & tire for a civi jeep, even passed on a pair of NOS Deuce fenders for $100, but I did take the free rusty bottom Deuce battery...
