Melon:
Thanks for the comments. This "truck" was a bag of parts when I got it. It's actually a two wheel drive station wagon chassis with planar front suspension...Also the F-161 came with the wagon. One of the previous owners put the pickup cab on it with a wood box for a bed. I cut and extended the chassis about 10 inches (I think..it's been a long time) and then made the bed to fit. It's about 8 inches shorter than a normal Willys truck. It's got the three speed Borg Warner trans with the R10 overdrive. I've put a 12 volt solenoid and relay on it...At this time I have a Dana rear axle from an 80's Cherokee with 3.55 gears which currently renders the overdrive moot. It's also narrower than the stock pickup rear axle which I prefer. I'll be changing the gear to a 4:10 or there abouts pretty soon and am looking into fabbing disc brakes for the front. I just don't get a warm and fuzzy out of the old brakes.
Again, thanks for the comments:
