Thanks for that info. I will need to check on the shifter and see what it is not getting into the gears. So, by looking at these gears can you tell if 5th is 1:1 or 1:0.8?

Unfortunately no. I haven't driven my truck in a month or so either. I need to run it and check it over some more.

Greetings from Western Montana ! Hows that great running and looking GMC doing now days ?

It's not my truck, but I'm pretty sure Don isn't looking to sell it.

@@joekirby1351 ok thanks for replying awesome truck !

I think that this would be a class 6 truck. I don't think that dodge makes them that big any more.

exactly what I thought, an old 4-53

Awesome and Thanks. At car shows I always look for Y-Blocks. October of 2020 I drove it from Central Missouri to Central Pennsylvania for Truckstock. She goes through oil a bit, but otherwise ran great. I did back roads there and interstate back since it was running so well.

@@joekirby1351 If you go to my KZbin channel, moonlightford f100 , you’ll see why it took me 2-3 weeks to do an oil change! Plus other truck stuff..

It is a beauty. I met the owner at Truckstock. A gathering of 48-56 ford truck guys. He is out of the Akron Ohio area. Another note about this truck, the bed rails is a air tank. I think the engine runs the compressor so he always has full air available.

@@joekirby1351 Thank you for the link! Too bad I have a 59 F100 and live in Western Montana!

Thanks, there is something special about a y-block sound.

Thanks, It just seems right having a Y-block in her. Since it was my wife's grandpa's truck. Keeping it mostly original is important too.
