    31 Steering Box Oil Leak

    Is there a simple fix for a steering box thats leaks it's gear oil out the bottom all over the light switch? I added gear oil per specs from my parts supplier but most of it leaked out. Is a total gearbox rebuild required? Some in my local club use grease just for this reason but I've read other...

    Water & bubbles through head stud nut threads

    I now see water and air slowing escaping up through the head nut that holds the distributor cable (#8). I'm guessing it's a cracked head, anybody have any other suggestions?

    Broken manifold stud fix?

    While trying to find an intake leak I decided to remove my manifolds. As I tried to loosen the second nut from the front it snapped. I can see it must have been bent from a previous install.

    I just bought a 31 Cab 68-b that was sitting since 1990. I've got her running but the radiator was full of rust and now that I've back flushed the radiator and block my radiator only holds water for about 10 minutes! I've researched new radiators and not sure if I should be worried about GPM...
