'Ol Ralph' works hard in the sand, launching boats over the beach and into the surf... no marina near our town in Baja... It's just the way we do it down here..

Reason: trying to add a photo of my truck to this thread?
How have I missed your truck!? Too cool! Do you have a build thread on it on here?
Here ya go- https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1...the-knife.html
I'm probably going to pull the engine back out to modify the oil pan, and change how the mounts are set up so it sits in there a bit better. This is also the same truck I did the disc brake and power steering conversion on.
These old trucks were designed to work and personally, I think the highest honor you can give one is to keep it working, even if just occasionally.IMHO, it's (almost) a desecration to drop one in the weeds and put huge bling wheels on it. Although I see nothing wrong with a modern drivetrain if it means you can drive it more.
