Thus rust, vibrations and rattles really get my goat.

Yet you own a 40 year old truck that has all of the above....  :o

what do you mean probably?

Feels nice. I had to stop because my wife had to leave for the Hospital. Unfortunately her grandfather is not doing well. I am re positioning the exhaust and putting in a flex pipe. It's unacceptable the way it is and too far forward over the rear axle. I'll adjust the timing and reset the carburetor too. If all goes well it'll be done tomorrow.

Heading over today to VZ's place to pick up the square. From what he stated, a large amount of work was completed. He said I'm no longer allowed to mention the word v*******n again, and that's fine with me. Other than an idler arm, I'm not turning a wrench again until next summer. Oh, I forgot, getting full body work and paint in Jan., but after that I mean it! Wheel spacers and the idler arm, and that's it! I'm enjoying the holiday season in peace. There are many things I still want to do, but minor for now and on the back burner.

I haven't driven the truck yet, but no doubt I'm sure it drives like it did in 77'. I'll post the results later and put an end to this "driveline v*******n" thread.  :D

I would be very interested in what it was in the trans that caused the vibration.

So would i! I actually forgot to ask. Either he'll catch this and post something, or i'll ask him at some point.

I gave the old one to one of the teachers. Told him next time he teaches transmissions to see who let the goose loose in there.
