Helitack, here is a link that may be interesting to you to read over.
http://www.1954advance-design.com/ We have some really great guys here who have a lot of documentation on stuff and you'll find them and read their stuff as you visit here. Much to learn and we all took baby steps at first. There is also some on line manuals, as well as master parts book numbers. It will take a little time so don't be so critical on yourself. I'm still learning every time I come here.
You'll find the answers to most of your questions in the garage forums. You have a nice truck.
(the bleeder screws can be a pain) had one the other day that I had to take the wheel cylinder off, heat it in a vice till its HOT and squirted some Kroil (penetrating oil) on it while it was hot to suck the oil done into the threads. Then, instead of using a wrench, even a line wrench, which will spread open under pressure, us a big pair of Channel locks that you can grip and twist as hard as you want to and it'll come out. I've only had to drill out maybe two in my lifetime. Good luck, see you around the garage.
