Need some input
I need some info/input on this. I didn't get the 69 Chevy parts truck I planned on getting, so I have these options:
1. Fix the Rockwell (needs a new washer machined, other than that its pretty tight) 2. Keep looking around for a parts truck with a NP205 t-case in it. 3. Fix the Rockwell, then keep looking for another parts truck, just to have around. To get a new washer made might cost 10-20 bucks, when a parts truck could be from 0-500 bucks (my price range). I'm leaning towards fixing the Rockwell, but I have one of those bad gut-feelings about putting it back in. Thanks for the help. Jake |

Re: Need some input
I'd stick with the Rockwell. Have you looked here? www.drivetrain.com They have parts for the Rockwell.

Re: Need some input
You`re truck`s a nice original and not a real common model.Leave it original,the whole truck.Build another one just the way you want it.The best of both worlds.

Re: Need some input
Yup, we're going to fix the Rockwell. If it works, great, if it doesn't, then oh well. Don't know whats going to happen until you try.
