This is instead of changing out the rear end. But it turns out that the countergear is toast and new ones are pricey so I am in search of a used transmission I can bolt up to the overdrive. The overdrive is a Borg Warner R10, the 3 speed is a Muncie 318/319. This is a non-synchro in 1st. Does anyone know if that overdrive will bolt up to later model with a synchro 1st that will bolt up to the 235 at the bellhousing? Anyone have a 3 speed they want to get rid of? Thanks all, have a good Mother's Day.

Of course I cant use the original drag link and tie rods since it is narrow so I got a rebuilt steering rack from a 1998 Dodge Dakota thinking the same width, should be easy to mount. I got it fit up and working and all was well until I hit the steering stop. The left seal blew on the rack and leaks oil. Tryed another rack same issue. Turned the steering pump relief valve down to about 700 psi and thought I had it this time but no, when it hits the stop on a right turn, the seal began blowing oil out the left side of the rack. there is no binding or such and the system can be turned by hand with the engine off.

Also used the 75 motor mounts with modifications that somewhat boxed the frame for support. Per experienced front end mechanic the drag link end & and power steering pump were shimmed out .62" each from the frame to use the original drag link as is saying it is now square with something?? concerning the bump steer issue. Used the drag link as is, cutting .50" off each of the 4 tie rod end threaded ends & new adjuster sleeves were about .75 shorter than original's allowing not running out of adjusting threads. Have not been on the road yet but front end lined up to his satisfaction with steering fine around parking lots & trailer loading.

Trying to fit a 47~53 ( I see some parts houses say 47~54 ) rear splash pan to my 54 P U?? Know when it comes to bumpers you don't want to get excited until you get the bumper and the bumper brackets bolted tight but I don't think this will go due to height of the splash pan back step contacting the bed rear face x-member ( after market ) too hard. The 54 bumper does have the center step but am trying with bumper upside down for size before I modify for the splash pan.
