    • Is that the long side? I might have an extra.

      Comment


      • Yes it is in the middle of the wheel bearing surface.

        It's the short side.

          That's too bad. I use the short sides.

          • Yeah the short side is much harder to find with it being used for narrowing them.

            I think we are just going to have it welded and machined unless I can find one in the next couple days.

            • My Dad picked up the rebuilt rear yesterday and dropped the axle shaft off to be repaired. I think we may just get the housing/diff back in the truck and slide the axles in when we get the bad one back.

              • The axle is back in and the gear noise is gone.

                We also decided to go ahead and do air bags on the front. I should know by now to not even waste time with trying to get these jag setups to sit right with the coil springs.

                  I am 99% sure I have a set of 1958 Texas Truck plates at my shop.

                  OP, if you want them and if I can find them, they're yours!

                  • If you dont have any use for them that would be really cool.

                    I have been keeping an eye on on ebay and prices are either way high or they are in bad shape.

                    Let me know if you find them.

                    • might do some research, I dont remember if truck plates were eligible.

                              • Its stuck in the garage again with the front suspension torn apart.

                                It will be a couple weeks before I will have any good images with the primer parts of the cab painted.
