I like the old school mount kinda, the recessed one is an awesome idea! my second choice and is what im gonna build is a gooseneck ball mounted carrier...!!! Like this but mounted on the gooseneck ball... However my ideas and build will be going on a flatbed...

Look no further than LMC truck. I get stuff from them all the time.

Man, if I could find one I'd buy it in a heart beat. Everyone wants a arm and a leg and your first unborn child for one... I'm extremely obsessed with putting a 4bt in a S10. So that's my first choice!!

So just a little idea spark here... I really think it would be fun to convert a 2nd gen 1500 single,short cab 2wd with a different motor. I am helping my father in law, rebuild his 360 in his 99 due to cam gear exploding. It's done and ready to go back in, however when er were looking for parts and upgrades to throw at it for some more pep for him, we came up short. Either you can't find go fast goodies during to the nature of the motor or if you did find them it was stupid expensive... now everyone does cummins swaps and that would be awesome but very heavy for the little truck. Still would do if I found the right deals, but what about like a chevy 350 and the plethora of mods available? Which would you choose? I can agree it would suck in the electronics department... Basically if I had a money tree, it would be a older chevy frame and running gear and powertrain with a 2nd gen dodge body.... wierd? Going to be on training for a week, figured this discussion would be worth while... Maybe just get a half ton frame and short body and throw all 2500 part under it? With a cummins? Just as a fun - play truck might I add. No work or towing.

I'm due for a harbor frieght trip... Maybe they will have something like this. Wish they came in 1/2 gal or 1gal so I could strap 1 or 2 to my atv...

@rotohead I like this!! Great idea, Ill be checking amazon for something like this!

oh oh oh oh I know some one! lol I didnt buy it, if i had the money I would highly suggest a ppump conversion instead of dragon flow...

Blocks are pretty easy to come by these days, if your going to do a rebuild. That suck though man...

Oh my!!!

This is what I got.

For some reason I am incapable of getting to the member map. Either my computer is jacked or I am just not as savy as I thought I was... both laptop and phone will not go the link/address for the member map. I have tried a bunch of different routes and options but from the forum then clicking on (member map) it takes me no where...

I like napa, my good friend had a store near me then couple years ago he had to close down... there isnt a other one near by unfortunately...

Yea I still got some new non greasable joints laying around. I have ran those much longer than a greasable one, just for my forgetfulness. Doing my joints here soon as well. Going non greasable again, but needing a good place to order the ball etc for the front carden joint? Oriellys any good?

Yea, I found it and a light bulb went off... they have some thats water proof so you could put it in your engine bay or in that little crevassea above the hvac intake...

Let me know if ole stan can help out...

Always been curious what temp the 2nd gen block heater got up to or maintained....

Found Attwood blower motors. 12v and used mainly in marine applications but also used everywhere else. Cheap fans, powerful, but noisy. You could definitely plum one of these in and move some air. Either pre or post blower motor. Theres enough room in the inlet cavity above the hvac box or (firewall) area to mount this bad boy as a helper fan.

Was this anything close to what you were wanting for measurements? Disclaimer: these are approximate measurements... please dont bring these numbers to a machine shop...

Yea I'm seriously considering making door panels.. just havent come up with and idea yet it how its gonna look. The whole dash almost went in the dumpster lol. I wanted to make a custom dash but for time sake I went this way for now. Someone is giving me a 99 1500 with a bad trans so I'll yank it all out of there and fab my dash there so I can get my truck back... Second video link

Here is 1 of 2 videos for today. https://youtu.be/6rG1Kqf2ZxU

I dont know how I got that then, I just followed the link through the forum...

I keep getting this message... Even on laptop. This site can’t be reached forum.mopar1973man.com’s server IP address could not be found. Go to http://mopar1973man.com/ Search Google for forum mopar1973man index ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED

Yea we got a couple of anaerobic sealers here at the shop we use frequently, Ill ponder it and post up a video of what I did.

In other words change your coolant every year or every other year...I can get coolant for free so this wont be an issue for me...

Well I tried that from my phone this morning, didnt work. Ill try on the laptop again..
