Dodge Trucks

Well, Jack I had the same problem on my 49 I took a grinder and cut the rivets off they hold the drums on. It makes life a lot easier  

Hey there, 1949 Dodge B1B 5 window here!

Planning a Fatman front end and 4 link rear I also have a chrysler newyorker for drivetrain and donor parts to work with. With work it will be a relaible rod truck for her to cruise with. Maybe she will pick him up for the prom! LOL Midknight70

looking for help on motor mounts on my 55-- have a 64 318 wide block-- any suggestions?  

hey, what kind of motor mounts did you use?  

I am looking at a 1950 B2 Panel wagon and I am looking for a Right Front Fender. I am also wondering if I will be able to find some of the detail items like window rubber and chrome trim and window felt. Let me know if you all have a source I need to know about.

Thanks

Hello Dodge fans, new to the Forum. I'm hoping that I'm able to gather some valuable information on my build. Does anyone have any information on where I can purchase a rolling chassis. Don't want to do too much work other than body work and paint. Once I can get my hands on a rolling chassis, I would be able to put pretty much any combination together for the drive train. I have a 1954 Fargo, which is a Dodge made in Canada and oversees. Any help would be greatly appreciated.  

JUST BOUGHT 1978 D 100 DODGE WITH A 318 ,ANY IDEA ON WEBSITES OR PHOTO'S OF ORIGIANAL MOTOR  

I am a car guy who fell in love with Dodge trucks from the Pilothouse era.  I have a 1951 that I have mofified to a 1986 diplomat front end.  Due to problems with getting a power steering pump to fit with the original flat six, I opted for a manual box.  Anyone have pictures on how they mocked up the steering column on a similar set-up?  

Hi, if you are looking for new parts try www.robertsmotorparts.com  

Oh, the reply was for Heavyfoot91.
Anyway, i got a 1953 Dodge 1 ton. It is original and was parked in a garage for 20 years before i got it. It still has the original paint and there is no rust but there has been mice in the interior. The wood in the box also need to be replaced.  

Hi.  I have a 56 Fargo that still has the original chassis rails but Jaguar front & rear suspension grafted in and new cross members put into the chassis.  The Jag fit was suprisingly easy and resulted in about 6 inches dropping out of the ride height.
I also know of a few other 54/55 Fargos that have been put on a Holden 1 ton ute chassis.  A Mitsubishi L200 ute chassis also seems to be a common replacement under some of the pick-ups here in New Zealand.
Both the Holden & Mitsubishi substitutes require fabrication of cab & tray mounting points, fairly likely that any other substitute would also.
I think that Fatman Fabrication make an IFS to fit the mid 50s Dodge pick-ups. of that helps.  

HI! I have a 1956 Dodge D 100 series that i am restoring.I am looking for a brake system for it, i ahve one that i made but insistn working otherwise  it is a running driving truck.  

HI! I also have either a 51  or 56 dloo series truck, i converted it with a 4 cyclinder 5 speed ranger motor and tranny I was having problems with my tranny could only get 1 and reverse that is all.
