I haven't done much. Working slowly. The bed is attached and as fitted as we can get it. I think it looks fine. Ready for the next step...

I just wonder if anyone has a parts book that would help find any other matching ring and pinions that might be put in that pig.

Hi 1960 ford f350, I'm new to the site. I have a '61 f350 stake rack with rockwell b140 5.83's. I would love to run higher gears to make truck more driveable on highway. how did those 5.14s work for you? any source for gears would be appreciated. The truck doesn't do heavy work any more, so the higher the better! (it came out too nice) You also posted about an interchange book. Did that ever pan out? Thanks! Bill

Good luck.

Oh but before you go,you have to show us pictures of your F350!
