I don't get to post under one of these that often, and I didn't see one started..... so here goes.

I went to advance and picked up a few things for the '67. They actually had a voltage regulator for my truck on the shelf

AND AND AND they had two parts people who knew what they were even talking about. The one guy told me I could go to GM and still get the parts to rebuild mine

(I just took the new one.) I also changed my thermostat from 195 to 180. Cleaned up my tailight buckets for paint.... little things

I needed to decide to continue my quest for a new 5 lug rear end (that hasn't been going well) or replace my new 5 lug spindles with ECE 6 lugs. Pulled the cover on the rear end. Clean as a whistle and no signs of wear..... Cleaned up and painted the cover and bolts and put 'er all back together with a new seal and gear oil. Two days and she didn't drip

I must have done something wrong

Guess I'm going with the 6 lug rotors.

Anyone else?
