Hello all, I have been a Ford Truck enthusiast since 1963 when my dad and I used to bounce around the hills of Nevada in our 1963 Ford 3/4 ton truck. My first vehicle was a 1959 Ford truck that I bought in 1970 for $250.00. It had a piston that was burnt thru and smoked like crazy, my dad and I rebuilt the 6 cylinder motor in the vehicle and I have been doing my own auto mechanics since then. I currently have two original Bronco's (67 and 76) and three Ford trucks (73 F-250 2wd Trailer Special, 75 F-250 4wd Highboy that I plow snow with, and a 2018 F-150). I am planning on restoring the 73 F-250 and I am hoping that some on this forum can direct me to vendors where I can get a couple of hard to find items.

Thanks for the welcome MrMajestyk, I will never forget that movie, what an advertisement for the ford truck and its twin I beam suspension. I am familiar with LMC and I will take your advice on the others.
