I just got my '53 one ton and began taking parts off the engine. My friend suggests that since I am cleaning things up on it, I should go ahead and replace the oil pump, water pump, and fuel pump while I have it partially disassembled.
The truck has not been out of the barn since '75 and I am not sure what all it exactly needs. He believes I will need to replace all of these things so I should do it now.
Looking for opinions: replace it all now, or try to get it running with what I have and replace things as needed later.
Cost is not that big of an issue.
THanks,
Huthip
