Nice to have all that room in the engine bay to work on things! You can see everything and are able to get your hands/tools where they need to be.

Not like on today's new trucks!

I haven't had good luck with the clamp type battry connector.
I see you have a pretty heavy gauge of wire there, but the clamp
type connectors can be troublesome. I would use a cable with
connector like is on thefirst battery (closest to the viewer) probably wont matter much this year but thats my .02

those axle shafts sure are pretty though

I agrree with you fordplow but this is the second year that im running that set up with the duel battiersand has yet to give me problems and no corrosion yet either. Thanks for the input

THe axle shafts ran me about 200 aside inner and outers with the u-joints installed so once i got them all i had to do was slide them in. Plus the 85 bucks for shipping.
As for the fuel line Im going to run it on top of the heater hoses that should keep it safe. But that is a real stell braided line not the slide on look a likes. Thanks for the input

one thing i noticed 76 is that you must deal with some horrific carb icing with that air cleaner no heat pipe or thermac door does the truck load up and blow black smoke while cold? iam just trying to help carb icing can cause such a rich condtion that over time you could dilute your oil with gas .

Pickering Snow No it doesnt load up when its cold i know what your saying ive had trucks in the past that did that but this one doesnt. IT starts right up in the cold winter and give it like a 1/8 of choke she will sit there and warm up with out me playing with the gas like most people do on carbed vechals. Thanks for the input. As for the oil diluting. I change the oil after every major snow fall when the truck is running 20 plus hours.
