Hello! Man before the UA-cam I was on forums posting. Its still out there! Not "step by step" but shows my progress. I was in the same boat, and tackled this never doing it prior. www.fordmuscleforums.com/threads/mini-tubbing-the-69.506860/

We'll see. Likely not either "initially" for his first car that is. When hes old enough, he loves the blue car, if anything this will go to him, since he's been around since so little. BUT I will say he's fond of these old ford trucks too. When Im gone they will all go to him and my daughter (almost 25 years old)

Thanks Tony! I am too. Im trying not to go full speed on this. Just necessities, like stopping and starting would be nice, but looking forward to either a satin clean cloat or shine juice on the patina and polishing the wheels.

Appreciate it. Looking forward to to it too, but dont want to lose focus on EgoBruise. Cheers!

Ive got plenty and I "ALMOST" went down that road last night, but figured getting if to run and stop to get it off the trailer is more important lol

Good question. I'll answer this on what I believe, but you might want to call Dakota Digital to confirm. This depends on your ECU. If your ECU has a VSS (speed sensor) then the BIM will pick it up the PID and allow that as an option for the speedo input. My ECU is a ford control pack, so just enough to run the run, but nothing else, no trans control, or speed control. Most ECUs, factory will know its speed from the VSS and send that signal to the Speedo. This is true for all the readings that go through or cant go through the ODB/BIM. If the engine's computer reads it it, the BIM will read it, like Oil press, engine temp, tach, Air temp, boost etc... Things that typically don't go through an ECU...Fuel level, typically separate from the ECU and goes through its own harness, indicator lights like turn signals, bright's indicator..things like that. One thing I love is the Check Engine Light, when thrown on the ECU will throw it up on the dash like a modern car. There really is nothing of this caliber like this on the market that can so quickly and easily convert your classic to a modern instrument cluster.

@@HOUSEOFDULA thanks

Yeah its a bit more for 86/86. I have a heater core vid for my 86 but its old, AND I reaplced the whole damn thing on the 86 as well (more not so fun). I learned a little more since. getting the blower off helps and is easy. Its not all that bad...the same mounting spots though apply to the 85/86 as the '79.

You bet! Glad it helps

Hes a great guy. Great company IMO.

Yeah with that you need to get creative lol Usually not too tight, mine was pretty loose so a broad large flathead worked. They do make a tool for it, ive never used it though. If you have a large and broad enough screwdriver you can typically reach both sides of the indentions. That or you can try a coin.

@@HOUSEOFDULA thanks for the reply man! That is what I was thinking too but I didn't have a flat head quite wide enough. I was also thinking a rag and some vise grips but I don't want to scratch it or break it. Just need to break it loose...

SWEET. Glad it can help someone out lol. I know this is a bit of a unique system being a 79-81. You are welcome! good luck with it.

@@HOUSEOFDULA what hanger are you using?

@@rickyberger458 So I cant confirm. I didnt buy the hanger. The tank came with it, but looks to be this one, if not, its extremely similar. www.highflowfuel.com/fuel-pump-hanger-oem-replacement-hfp-an50-h-0606-qfs/?sku=HFP-AN50-H-0606-BC&gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAjwzIK1BhAuEiwAHQmU3tgBrVHSDrz_uN8nhw_Zr8S2Zl4DxogqO546lac2Y415eH4GmmoSTxoCPYAQAvD_BwE

Im not 100% certain since this came with the tank, but looks to be this one, if not similar to. www.highflowfuel.com/fuel-pump-performance-hfp-an525ft-0-qfs/ -8 is so overkill for a non-E85 4 cylinder. BUT at least It wont even under perform no matter what I throw at it.

So one issue I have is I cant stand back to look at the tanks "level" I think now after looking at it, after I posted the video, its lower where the sump is. I have a feeling massaging will need to be had as well. IDK if you massaged the tank itself of the body, I think i'll smack the sump corner a few times.

I massage the sheet metal of the car, the tank makes contact in the front and back of that opening iirc, so I had to hammer it upward to make a slight contour to allow the bigger “sump” upwards further

Mine have faded a bit, turned a little "gold" like the finish is coming off, but otherwise no complaints. Chrome I think would be a better finish anyway.

Well I appreciate that and appreciate the patience with it. I know it’s s little slow moving.

What year did yours come off of?

My son would say I YEETED it across the garage floor.

Yes they are aren’t they! I have not checked it, need to when i drop it to wire it next video

Good call! Will try

WHAT UP TOM! Thanks man

Thank you sir!

Yes they will...just use the updated part number I posted. The ones in the video were too short. I still have not plumbed my brakes but the length is fine.

Hello! go to houseofdula.com and click on "contact us" at the top. This will send me an email and I can reply back with photos that can help you out.

Gary! Sorry bud, I think you hit me up a few times. I kept remember to go look, but I remember now right after the swap I local fox builder wanted it. It was gone pretty quickly. Didnt know folks needed the old 4 speed pedal assemblies. Sorry man. And really apologize for not getting back sooner.

Whats up! Thank you, much appreciate it. I got them from LMR.com!

Thank you!

I like it...it has an issue where it likes to pop out of gear. Might need to take it in, but the decision was for simplicity and durability....plus only tractors I've even been on were older non-hydrostatic ones. The John Deere 3025 hydrostatic (3025E I think) has an aluminum housing for trans and I think axle, so its a little lighter, but not stronger. The 3025D is all cast steel like a more traditional tractor. That and if something needs fixed hydrostatic is a bit more $$$ too. So nothing wrong it, I just dont mind shifting, and chose the simplicity factor.

@@HOUSEOFDULA Thanks for sharing your thoughts and experience!! Greatly appreciate! Thanks for all your videos!!

Thank you!

Oh yeah. I have no intention on putting any chemicals in that pont unless its 100% safe. We have the ducks and all kinds of wildlife I care for ;) The goats! lol that would do it. This new weed just started this year with all the rains, looks pretty and most likely with this heat hitting, it will start to slow down its growth. Thats interesting about carp and tilapia, I didnt know they were pond week killers.

@@HOUSEOFDULA I guess you don't fish much Dula. Yeah, tilapia and carp eat algae, grass and aquatic plants.

@@4eyefoxbodyfanclub625 NOPE! Not a huge fisherman. Like it, but never got really big into it.

Thank you! Been I while. I thought that was covered in this vid, maybe not. Those bulb covers need to be snapped out carefully (likely will break from the light and age) but they clip out of the housing. Check 21:20 ish on the video

Will do!

I appreciate that. Everyone is so positive here on the channel. Like one big family!

To me it certainly is, to some it might not be lol

Oh man, thats prime property! love that area. Floated that river many of times.

It was so sad to watch 50 some odd trees die right after purchasing it! They went through 2 brutal winters, and a horrible drought last summer, along with root rot from sitting in water. They had no chance...but I too love trees and wish we had more, hate seeing them go. But yes. More tree, less neighbors. I learned, at least in my place the same neighbor "issues" follow, they are just more spread out lol. Hell you have have 100 acres and still have those neighbors that complain lol. Luckily people who typically live out here do so to keep to themselves. The camper is toast...its only 4 years old and looks 20 years old from sun damage. That large pad on the side of the end of the building is for the camper, and has plates in the concrete to weld a cover on it in the future. We just needed to "stop" somewhere or your budget will snowball.

Yessir. I likely have a few for sure. I have an electrician I'm working with on the meter base termination and wiring the shop out, we'll see if he works out. Are you in the area by chance? I will need help eventually speccing out the minisplit size and head quantity, likely two heads for 600sq ft, but tall ceiling 18ft.

@@HOUSEOFDULA I’m not but I can help spec things out. Splits are super simple to install.

No, its clear from all the rain. Essentially the pond has 4-5ft or fresh water. Its about 10-12 ft in the center. It will get green as the summer get hotter, but I have yet to aerate it, but would be nice, once we get power out there.
