  1. Thanks for all the help and info. I ordered and received 3 pin connectors from Dakota Digital. They look like they will work very well.
  2. I received this when my dad passed in 2004. He bought it around 1950. He was the 3rd owner. In the past I installed a rebuilt engine from a 1938 dodge. This last year I finally got time and money to work on it a lot. The attached pictures (in no particular order) show most of what I have done, but not all. In the next few weeks I hope to install the transmission. I have bought a lot of parts online that will go on/in after other things are done. I'm hoping to restore it to as original as I can, but some parts are almost unobtainable. Bob
  3. when these are connected (door shut) do they pass the current on to what ever is hooked up to them? thanks.
  4. I'm looking for these switches or alternatives for my panel Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Bob Also posted in general discussion thread.
  5. I'm looking for these wiring harness switches or alternatives for my panel. Any help appreciated. Thanks. Bob
  6. Don't see any replies, so I don't know if you have found out yet. My 36 hump back spare holder is just shy of 26 1/2" as shown in the pic. Tube is 2" OD, and flange is 5" across. Bob
  7. I have steel drop center rims. Any ideas or thoughts on durability of coker bias ply tires?
  8. I put this in the Dodge Truck section but haven't had any replies yet, so thought I would try here. I'm to the point of ordering tires and tubes for my panel. I'm looking at Coker classic 16". My problem/questions are which specific tube (location of valve stem) do I order, do I order ones with tr 13 or tr 15 stems? Are rim strips and tube flaps necessary? I do want to get rim strips, but don't know if I need tube flaps. Any info would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

  10. saw this and thought someone might be interested. Bob https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/222394203036318/?ref=search&referral_code=marketplace_search&referral_story_type=post&tracking=browse_serp%3A916a19a4-8389-47a2-9b66-84ac474fc57a
  11. Thanks everyone for the info. Bob
  12. I saw this car photo on a facebook page. Anyone know what brand and year it is? Thanks.
  13. might also try Vic's Dodge garage. He restores all kinds of stuff for dodge trucks. Lives outside of Corvallis, OR. https://vicsdodgegarage.com/
  14. If your 36 takes them, I have a sleeve of 1 1/8 pistons somewhere in my collection. Bob
  15. I finally have had the time (and $) to work on my panel some more. New rear leaf springs, rebuilt shocks and new shock rods, new wheel cylinders, new brake shoes, new brake lines. Just got the rear end sitting one the ground for now. still have the front end to do, and redo the wheels. feels good.
  16. I'm finally installing my new rear leaf springs. My question is the rear shackle for the right rear spring has 1 left hand thread and 1 right hand thread. Does the left hand thread go on the spring side or the hanger/frame side? Thanks in advance.
  17. I contacted eaton for the rear springs for my 36 dodge humpback panel. It took awhile but they finally contacted me and said they had the bluprints for the springs and that they could make them for me. I have one installed, but still waiting for right side (left hand thread) shackle to put the other one on. Bob
  18. It is a 36 LC, Vin # 8137665. Thanks for the info. It should fit if I can find one. Bob
  19. I'm trying to find out what the correct outside door handle and lock is for the back door of my panel. Does anyone know if the rear has the same handle and lock assemblies as the front doors? If the are different does anyone know mopar # or what would fit/work on the back door? Thanks in advance.
  20. thanks for the info surf city. I should be getting my new leaf springs in the net week or so. Bob
  21. I did check again and the bolts are not as long as I thought. (it was the shock link rods that were very long on bottom). A deep socket will work good. On a side note-- torque with sitting on ground with tires and wheels on, or in air without? Thanks.
  22. thanks for the info. I was hoping for an answer like this. What I will have to do is cut down the bolts after the nuts are on so I can get a torque wrench on them. The bolts are like 2" + longer than the nuts when tight.
