Don,
That is one of the reasons that I have not yet purchased too many parts. I had decided to wait and get things (expensive new stuff) as I need them. With prices always going up, I know that I will most likely pay more in the end, but so far I am okay with that.
Glad to hear that you are getting this issue resolved quickly and (hopefully to your satisfaction). You have a great looking truck, and it will all be worth it in the end.
Hang in there
John
PS: I am interested in how your rear main seal issue plays out. Although I know that these old trucks are notorious for marking their territory, I want to take extra precautions and keep any leaks to a minimum.
Please keep us informed about this as well.
Thanks
John
