Hey guys,
Thank you to John, Jr., and Dave. I have a feeling that I am not alone in my season of madness. I'll get back to you about parts, care and quirks. My 'Bad Boy' has had a Dodge 360 put in it as well as a set of 325/85/R16 tires from a Hummer (I'll replace these soon. Should I go back to original size? Any suggestions?). The hood and fenders are a little dented but the rest is in great shape. The speedometer doesn't work and will have to be replaced. My main concern right now is the steering. It is really stiff and I wonder if it can be loosened up. It also pulls right on braking (I had a front brake job done and found that oversized hubs were put on. I'm hoping that as the shoes get worn in the pull will disappear.).
Oh! One more thing. It's not my problem but it is my neighbours. No mufflers, just straight pipes running up the sides. Sounds great to the kids but I should get them toned down. Any suggestions as to where to run a new system? Up the sides, right to the rear, or ahead of the rear tires?
Thanks again for the quick replies and the information.
Lazarus
