Re: Rebuilding my 1977 plow truck

I don't know how many miles are on the truck at this point because of the body swap back in 1989 and I have replaced the speedo once or twice since then because of noise etc. Plus when you are plowing a lot of the miles are in reverse which actually takes miles off the odometer. The engine, trans and transfer case have all been rebuilt at one time or another. I have never done anything with the differentials. The front axle shafts and u-joints have been replaced a few times. I just keep fixing what goes wrong. I have bought other trucks in the past to replace this one, but I always go back to this truck. I know its faults and I know what it will and wont do in most situations. Its like that old pair of comfy shoes that you just cant part with.
