Thank you for the info. I'll contact both of them. Mt Sterling is not too far from me.

Looking for a machine shop to rebuild my 46 flathead V8. I’m in south central Kentucky. Looking for places in surrounding states. Any help is appreciated. It’s been at two different places for a year at each place.

I had to special order the radiator. Just came in about a month ago.

Couple year update. Had back surgery right after my last post. Waited a year to do any lifting so I could heal up. In 2024 I got 6 new tires. 7.50x20 on the front and 8.25x20 on the rear. Towards the end of last year I ordered a new radiator from US radiator. Just finished up putting new brake...

Looking to have the engine out of a 46 ford truck rebuilt. I'm in south central Kentucky close to Bowling Green (Off insterstate 65) . Haven't had any luck finding anyone. Engine stayed a year at one place and I had to go bring it back home. Didn't know if anyone could give me any...

I looked at Miller tire. Called down to the tire shop that is close to where i work which is 50 miles from the house. They could get 7.50 and 8.25 for $400 each mounted. Talked to a buddy who lives about 2 hours from me. He said he had a set of 4 8.25x20 that a neighbor gave him. Said he would...

What brands are the best to buy in the 7.50 and 8.25 size? Talked to the local tire shop near me and they have a brand called Vee Rubber.

What brand are you tires? Do you buy them locally?

Looking at getting tires for my 46 1.5 ton truck. Has 7.50x20 in the front and 8.25x20 on the rear. What size came on the truck originally and what size if everyone running?

It screws into the front wheel cylinder of my 46 ford 1.5 ton truck. Then the rubber brake hose screws into it.

took 30 minutes to clean all the dried up grease and oil off with a flat screw driver. Had some small rocks that made it about as hard as concrete to get out. Its exactly like it how everyone here has posted. thank you!!

Trying to figure what rubber mount Ford used in a 46 1.5 ton truck. has the 4 speed with the emergency brake on the transmission. Have a picture of the two old rubber mounts along with the new one that I was told was the original one. The new one has metal incorporated in it. Also included a...

Have a 46 Ford 1.5 ton truck with the 2 speed rear axle. Has anyone come up with a replacement for the old vacuum shifting for the 2 speed axle?

The correct bellhousing came with the engine. Thought the 46 flywheel would work on the 52 motor. My 46 engine is locked up due to a little antifreeze leaking into one cylinder. I thought about making brackets for the car water pumps so I could use the pumps on the 52 engine.

Found a new wide belt crank pulley and new truck water pumps. I'm assuming that the 52 style truck pumps are at the correct height for 46 truck frame?

Bought a 52 V8 car engine to put in my 46 ford 1.5 ton truck. Engine mount pads on the 46 engine are flat and on the 52 engine are at angle. Pulleys on the 52 engine use the narrow belts. What is the best way to mount the 52 back in the factory 46 location? Been doing some research and about the...

I was looking to swap the pulleys over from the engine that was in the truck. Got the engine unloaded before the rain comes in. Not doing too much and mess my back. A Powermaster alternator that looks like a generator came with the engine too.

The engine I picked up has car water pumps on it. Looking to switch over to the other style water pumps.

Started a new job and had been busy with that. Then had some back pain and finally got the doctor to do an MRI. Had to have back surgery but today I finally brought home a rebuilt 49-53 motor. Slow progress but at least its something.
