where do i start???
iv just bought my dream truck,,
a rusty ol ford.
its a 91 f150 inline 6, 4.9L. my only problem,,,its a rusty ol truck.
i was wonderin if anybody could point me in the right direction of anywhere to get good but cheap suspension parts, wheels & bumpers..??
the underside is COMPLETELY rusted to ****, i have to do all the engine gaskets, rear main seal, and a new clutch(maybe even the trans), the electrical work is the worst kinda chicken **** iv ever seen, and a defenate alignment. n thats only what comes to mind right now. lol
does anyone have any suggestions also on how to do the gaskets? the truck has been sittin for 2 years, the coolant is is only rusty water and the oil is milky. i want to flush the engine with new oil but dont know the best way to do that either. i dont have torque specs and have only the weekend to do it.
any little bit of anything would be the best i can get.
please help!!!!

OP...will the engine even turn over? What makes you think the trans is bad? And without trying to cross the line or be rude....exactly how much cash did you drop on this truck?

lol!
well i got it for free but my fiance put up 700 from a mutual fund.(the deal was done by the time i woke up). im lookin forward to fixin it up and havin a soon to be classic.
the engine cranks n runs good, sometimes bogs out like there is no fuel getting to it.
the clutch is near impossible to put into first while just idling, has to be there before truck is turned on (also because i have no parkin brake).
zxwut---- 954 is one of the most bitchin bikes ever,, y a suzuki to add??
