Few vehicles look as sharp as a OBS CCSB. The fact that it's a Centurion F-150 makes it super cool. I'll be following your progress.

To swap from 2wd to 4wd they wanted 1800$ to "rebuild" the unit. I can do the work but no warranty,needing swapped and the logistics not working out .. I'll save up for a bts.

"Sandy "is in the shop for pulling the engine and repairing fuel gauge that's inop

I'll snap some pics as I go. Lousy cyl head freeze plug. I have NEVER seen one fail on a 5.0. crazy stuff.

You going to run a coolant filter on this truck? Might be a good idea.... bad freeze plug might mean yucky coolant.

It's not real great. I'm going to get to flush it soon anyway. Radiator decided it was done this morning...

Ordered rear lowering shackles and going to get 2 fuel assemblies on the way.

I adjusted on the doghouse tin. The hood to coul gap was huge on Dr side and tiny on pass. Loosened rad support at frame and everything else. Shoved core over,adj hood and got fenders better. Pass fender has a gap between it and door now at least. Lines look better too. Gotta move bumper over next. Fun times!
