Morning guys, had.a couple of setbacks on my '62 4x4 yesterday. put water back in the cooling system and the rear freeze plug started leaking. I guess will need more cleaning and a lot more aviation gasket sealer.

Got the other manifold and realized the collector tail pipe flange bolt were to long and had a unthreaded gap kn the stud. attempted to remove them and snapped both off. After a trip to town to get two new studs and some drill bits it's back together and ready to install. Thay is after i get the rear freeze plug sealed.

Morning Rob. Just another day working on these old trucks! Good to hear you got the manifolds straightened out. Good luck with the freeze plug.
