I seen somethin that made me sick the other day, i seen a 78/79 ford in a fourwheeler magazine and he replaced the rearend, a 9", w/ a gm 10 bolt. Why would he do that? Ford makes the best rearends, y would he replace the 9" w/ a 10 bolt? (shudder)

Replacing a 9 in. with a 10 bolt makes no sense. Replacing a 9 in. with a 14 bolt...now that's a little different story...

Putting GM parts in a Ford is just flat out wrong.

1970f2504x4! Why do you believe installing "GM" parts in a Ford crazy? Parts is parts. It starts with ore, a smelter, hammering, machining and after that's all done, brand labeling. Chances are scrap iron from all manner of automobiles was used to manufacture the steel used to build your Ford. So what's the BFD? I like using Ford parts on my Ford simply because they fit and work really well. But....this weekend I am installing a 80 amp GM one wire alternator, simply because it fits and works better than the obsolete Ford alternator and regulator I will remove. I like Michelin tires and Monroe shocks and Eaton springs. All of these companies make GM and Ford parts. Do you have an after market steering wheel, seats, wheels, wipers? How about your sound system, is it all Ford? Broaden your horizons man! It is a big wonderful and diverse world out there, much of it driven by GM.

Do they make Anti Rejection drugs for stuff like that? I mean wouldn't a Ford of any year, just absolutely reject any GM part that came near it?

I know my two trucks would! That's just sickening, the guy that did that needs to be Drummed out of the Ford Brotherhood!

And be exiled into the land of chevy morondom.


1988 F-150, SWB, 5.0 EFI (formerly 4.9 EFI), M5OD 5 speed, 3.08 gears, Summit shorty truck headers, Custom built Flowmaster exhaust system. Force 4 LP6000 lightbar, Federal signal PA-300 100 watt siren, Icom IC-V100 50 watt mobile radio.
=======================================
1965 F-100 (just purchased 1/18/01), SWB, 390, C-6 auto. Dual exhaust, Not much else to do to it.

Can see both below.

fair enuff, white lightning.the only problem is, they can't joke about chevy over ford because the concept is ludacris! any how, i seen a sticker on a '37 ford coupe "it's a ford, but listen for the heartbeat!" when he went to start it, he threw a rod... hmmm... an omen perhaps?

Has A FORD Drivin You Lately?

When the Beast realizes it only has a 4-cyl, we're gonna have probs!
