It's a neoprene rubber, hose clamps pre installed on each end. Primary use is to connect cast iron and other piping systems with some degree of flexibility. Available in most hardware or building supply stores that carry plumbing supplies. They will resist gasoline. 47 Fred. ------------------------------ From: "Mike Bishop" Subject: Grille dimensions Date: Sun, 12 Mar 2000 13:17:49 -0800 I need some assistance from a couple of Forders out there (unless one of you is fortunate enough to have both trucks mentioned). I would like to know the distance between the centers of the park lights, measured at the bottom center of the lens door (frame) where it contacts the front roll pan, for the following trucks: 1952 F-1 1956 F-00 Thanks in advance for any help.

I need to raise the bed. But if I just raise the bed it will raise the rear fenders which raises the rear mounts of the running board which will now be at a angle. Do I also need to raise the cab on the passenger side to level everything up? Has anyone had this problem? If so how did you solve it, or how would you solve it?

If shopping at a swap meet or a friends house, purchase of a manifold to carburetor gasket will prove a good investment. 47 Fred ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 13 Mar 2000 09:59:40 +0000 From: Fred Hooper Subject: Re: bed height Dave, Unfortunately to fix the problem, you have to first find the source of the problem. Everything else is a cosmetic fix, or workaround. The frame could be tweaked a little, or the springs weak. If you need it to be right, strip it down, and set it on stands and go through it. If you don't want to do that, try shims or adding a leaf to the low side. Good luck.
