86 Crew Dually

I've always wanted a dually and today was able to pull it off. i wasn't really looking for one but this seemed like one i shouldn't pass up.

150,000 miles 1 owner very stock interior is dirty but all there and in good condition always kept in a barn and only drove once a month for the past couple of years to get hay.

we had to drag it sideways out of a barn to get it out as the passenger wheel is completely frozen. plans are to lower it and put wheels on it and just drive the hell out of it.

Re: 86 Crew Dually

Looks like a very decent start. Blow the dust off (inside & out) & I bet it will be even better!

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

Lets just say the drum was slightly stuck on.

Re: 86 Crew Dually

Very nice find. I feel for you with the stuck drum. I have resorted to cutting stuff off a few times. Seems to be the way to go instead of fighting something for days!

Glad I'm not the only one. Everyone is just like oh just put the adjuster in and blah blah blah well that didn't help. It seemed the wheel cylinder wouldn't let go even with the bleeder out.

Re: 86 Crew Dually

Front leaf spring bolts to the forward mount and rear shackle bolts have been my notorious ones I always seem to cut off instead of fight. I’ve tried heat and kroil with no luck.
