Re: addvertising
Every other site I go on is loaded with ads and pop up ads and it is getting worse by the day. That's why I thank Ryan for keeping this site clean of ads for logged in members.

Re: Van Pelt?
I called Mac about a week and a half ago to order some parts. Got a message they would be closed to take a vacation. Forgot the timing.

Re: Wheel stands
Just wondering how you get the car up high enough to place them? My floor jack will not lift that high.

Re: Post war brakes question.
Yes those springs are strong. Just did a front brake on the 46 pickup. With the right tool it is easy. Here is my old Craftsman plier. Plenty of leverage from the long handles.

Re: 47 pickup second gear pops out
Thanks for the response rotorwrench. Sounds the shifter dedents play a minor role. Can that be done on top or even worth checking?
