I bought this truck back in 2001, and have not really had much time to do anything with it.
She runs great, and I take her around the block every month or so, but now that work is getting back to nirmal hours I plan on getting after her.

Thanks for the forum, and sharing the knowledge.

I am in the process of moving, so I should end up with more space.

It came with turn signals in teh steering column, and they are busted, so I need a replacement, and it has a short someplace, but the harness has been hacked into so many time, I shoudl replace th entire thing.

Other than that, she is road worthy, well new tires and rims are needed. I made my own Disc brakes for the front, and need to move up to a 16" or 17" rim. Trying to find my pictures, need to get them posted.

Let me see if I can find some pics, or just take some more.

If I recall I am using the rotors, and calipers from a 2000 chevy pickup.
I made soome mounting hardware that attaches to the top and bottom of the steering knuckle.

Stopping power is unreal. I can nose dive the front end at 40mph, and if you get on them hard enough, can slide the front wheels easily. I am very happy withthis setup.

One issue is the need for a 16" rim for clearance issues, 15" is just too dang close.
I will share some pics later, as my electica has anissue I have not drivn her in nearly a year.

Have a broken down rear end. Now I wonder what ratio it should be and where I can get parts to this "Dana 60 axle"? Did they change the original ration in the rear axle when they added the NAPCO kit?

Will be back with my "NAPCO Story", later.

What model is the truck? Normally Napcos would have what ever axle came originally with the 2WD truck. Dana 60s are pretty common around here in Oregon, though I wouldn't call them cheap. I'm sure parts are readily available. What's wrong with it? I guess that's a better subject for the drivetrain section of the forum.

It's easy to tell '57 from '58. The obvious way is a '57 only has one headlight per side, a '58 has 2.
