    Rock Auto 80 bronco drums $31.95 might be worth a try. Raybestos and Bendex. But might be best to match it up at the counter at napa or? MW

    Hints on solving front end 'wobble'..

    Set the toe in try 1/8 in maybe a little more. Jack up one tire scribe a line around it as you spin it. Set it down do the same to the other one. Roll the car back and fort a bit to settle the suspension ( some spray paint on the tires first will make the line harder to erase) get the distance...

    First Night Golden Colorado Cruise

    I'm in and out in the afternoon. It is a zoo in the evening. But with so many nice cars and trucks it's hard to pass up. MW

    52 F-1 Panel (Ruffus)

    Just a question. Are all truck heads 8BA heads? The intake on Ruffus has 8Rt cast on it.

    I did think about a flat square tank under the back, but fill and spare mount shut that down. A 53 has the shape that would fit inside frame but the fill would take work, it's on the top could move it to the side. Most of the universal tanks are small. I'll come up with something. I appreciate...

    52 F-1 Panel

    I put the best windows and latch parts I had back in the OE doors and put them back on the Ruffus where they belong.
