They are different in some way. I have some of each, (I think). Looked to me like either one would fit my 56 so I used the best ones, but not sure whether I used "55" or "56". Sorry not much help....

I don't think I have a pic but I'll look. My truck uses a 53-55 tank. The pickup is on the inner side of the tank, comes out the top, then over the frame and back down and up to the fuel pump. I bought a repop tank thru NPD and bent my own fuel line to the rubber hose to the fuel pump. My...

Looking for a good- not perfect- Chrome grille. This truck is a 6 so don't want the V8 emblem holes. Thanks guys.

I know 56 was the 1st year of a recessed wheel on trucks. 55 and older wheel was flat- 56 and up into 60's was recessed. Also 56 up column was shorter so wheel ended up in same spot.

I went- it was OK. I guess it was about 1/2 of what it used to be. There was one full building and another building about 1/4th full. About 8 or 9 cars for sale. My buddy who has went there years ago said there used to be 4 full bldgs and a full car corral. I bought a few things for my truck...

Love that car!!

Bob, Can you sort of straighten out the off center using a press? After you get it close, then turn it on your brake lathe?

Been following you on here and FTE. I don't know the answer to your question about the adjuster. I will bump you up, You're doing great work, sure is sumptin how these projects escalate, huh??

Those weren't any better I hope this helped.

Sorry those pics weren't what I meant to get, I'll try again.

I have a 85 300 6 in my 56 F100. 1985 had a weird emissions set up with a electronic mixture solenoid and a early style of computer controlled advance. I switched mine to a late 70's style vacuum advance dura spark dist. and a 73-75 Carter YF carb. Mine had that goofy spacer you can't find. I...

I wouldn't think it would help much on a solid axle, I really don't know though. i hope someone who has done it will pipe up.

I knew things looked familiar! Been following you on FTE. Good work!!

I don't know why I cant post these pics- they are on FTE though. If you want look at my thread on the last or next to last page. https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1475171-56-f-100-basket-case-build.html

I used a piece of 1/2" threaded rod, 2 nuts, a washer and a big deep socket. That will work for the bushings that go in the spring itself. The 1/2" nut (3/4" hex) is too big to take the bushing out of the frame in the front. I didn't remove those. You will have to figure that out. I replaced the...
