    school me on dry sumps

    Still kicking ideas aorund on my new build front diff clearance vs oil pan. Is there any scenerio/setup that would allow removal of the oil pump and using essentially a flat oil pan? If I don't relocate the front diff, my front driveshaft would go right through the oil pan, kinda like this guys...

    Full length headers and P-Heads

    Don't look too bad. Not even sure what brand those headers are, they came with my 70 when I bought it. Looks like #6 would be the worst for spark plug wires. Hard to see, but #7/8 would be no problem at all. Now changing plugs would be a whole nuther story. Nice difference in the P-head exh...

    35 spline ARB, still problems??

    Still considering a mog 406/9 front (would leave rear 406 diff as is). Would really like to go 35 spline if I did, just to make sure it will be bulletproof, like the rest of the axle. Are 35 spline ARB's still problematic?? I weighed the front 406 axle today and it comes to 641 (588 on scale...

    Explorer 5.0 with carb and/or full length headers

    Picking up an explorer 5.0 Monday. Currently have the stock 70 5.0 and I'm not looking to go EFI. 1. Can I use stock 70 distributor with a carb setup? (need different distr gear?) 2. Can I use the serp setup with a carb? 3. Can full length headers be used with the P-heads?

    track bar and drag link angles?

    How much worse does it make an EB handle if they are pretty far off? Now that I've had a couple drives in my 70, I realize it drives like crap. If I had to do it over, I would not have lifted it as high (my original plan was street and mud, but that have been shifted to street and maybe show...

    Build vs Buy

    Did this once before, but I added up all my receipts to date for my 70 (about twice as many as last time I did this, no cheating ;D). I did get a decent amount of parts from stock I had (from fullsize broncs) or off a parts 76 bronc that ended up making me money (so I considered those parts to...

    Soft tops, doors, and risers (intermixing brands)

    Any way to make a kayline soft top fit a besttop riser? I ordered a bestop black bikini, because I did not want to move WW motor and I like the taller top for the street rig (also orederd 2 piece besttop doors, which I assume would work best with a bestop type full soft top). Had to use the...

    Mach I hood scoop emblems

    Since I don't have a 351 and I like the 69 Mach I hood scoop, picked up some new emblem inserts for 20$ (including shipping). Way cheaper than new authentic full emblems @ 50$.

    It lives (sorta)- pics inside

    Been racing to get to drive my 70 at least once before my foot operation in 2 weeks (since I've never driven it on the street). Still needs some pretty major exterior bodywork, but the inside/drivetrain is done and I made the outside look at least presentable. Last major hurdle was lots of...

    In dash radio and drivers side defroster tube?

    What are ya'll doing about the interference? Could probably make the tube fit, but I just bought new ones and it seems the edge of radio will eventually wear a hole in the tube.

    Wheel mounted fenders.

    Soft vs Bikini tops- windshield header bracket.

    I have 2 older soft tops, not sure on brand. Was curious if most bikini tops use the same windshield bracket that the soft tops uses (and for that matter, are there different brackets for different brand soft tops??)
