Re: Head Bolt continually weeping
Seems it may be a fresh engine, shouldn’t be tough to remove the studs. Are those studs SS? The nuts look like they are, but the studs have a dull iron look to them?

Re: Cam clean-up?
Interesting discussion, but I look at it like a bearing race, even cleaned up and polished, I wouldn’t use it.
Now I can see if your wallet is empty and you need to get an engine running to get...

35 pickup pass side front fender
Can send you a pic via email, pretty decent, but won’t ship, don’t have the time, so you’ll need to pick it up, or have a buddy get it and ship to you. I need to see it go to use, hence the price. ...

Re: Do Bronco drums work on 46-8 hubs?
I was in a rush when I replied earlier, so what I came across while searching ((and what I misunderstood) was using some year of F100 backing plates on 40-48 spindles, then using Bronco drums. I...

Re: Welding a bumper
There ya go. Weld it with what you have and paint it up. It’s not like it’s going to do much help in a crash;)

Re: Magna flux tool
I think you are correct. My shop let me use their “portable” unit several years ago while I was hunting for a intake manifold. It was a square U shape, with legs about 4 or 5 inches apart. They...

Re: Do Bronco drums work on 46-8 hubs?
Oh, I don’t think that could be placed outside, due to the steel ring on the later hubs. I was thinking/ wondering if they (Bronco) would work behind the hubs

Re: Do Bronco drums work on 46-8 hubs?
Yes. That’s what I’m wondering as well. Both styles are different, and has been explained to me can be interchanged. But I’m wondering if there might be an offset or interference issue. ?

Re: Welding a bumper
I assume your going to have it chromed? If so, weld it up but don’t try to grind it down before taking it in, let the chrome shop do it. If you’re going to paint it then get after it.

Do Bronco drums work on 46-8 hubs?

My drums are marked 12.090 and I really wasn’t concerned when I got them as I...
