    Davis Off Road, crossover steering???

    I looked at ORD that price doesn't include the steering box & some extras and they don't provide a pan hard Bar. And i don't think their stuff is powder coated. when I priced it all out it was very close.

    I hung the headman headers yesterday they fit well. i had to make a small dent the collector on the passenger side where the lower bolt sticks threw the spring & shackle. if i had the stock shackles it would have cleared. But The ORD heavy duty shackles w/grease fittings take up much more space...

    Frost bite radiator & electric fan???

    The trucks in the restoration shop in pieces not much to take pictures of right now When you lift the body the core support goes up but the engine stays the same height. then the fan sits lower and will hit the bottom shroud. So the bottom 1/2 of the shroud has to be removed.

    Frost bite radiator & electric fan???

    I've read this on other forums. Again, it only gets hot after sitting at idle or at a crawl in traffic. i installed a single electric fan out of a junk yard years ago & put it on a toggle. it cools it quickly. Since the truck is getting fully restored i was looking for something that looks nice...

    Finally got extended/suitable emergency brake cables onto my rear wheels.

    Dose your e-brake cables run down the driver side and then split off into the axle. One cable is long that goes to the passenger side of the axle and the other is short that goes to the drivers side of the axle. i put 3/4 quarter ton axles in my 1986 1/2 ton short bed, and the rear axle is out...
