microbe, what do you want to know? Either he sold the kit with the truck, or took it with hime when he moved to Colorado. I'll ask him if you'll tell me what to ask.

I drive my truck a lot And items like better brakes ,steering etc are important . old navy 51.............. | | | | | Joined: Dec 2003 Posts: 1,554 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Dec 2003 Posts: 1,554 | Put an M2,with power R&P steering in my 55 2nd,what a difference.Its a real pleasure to drive. | | |
