Bill - See if this helps: Cooling Systems/Elbows.  I can't find the right illustration for that application, but he should be able to either find it by the generic illustrations or in the part number list.

And see if you agree with what I added to the Bullnose FAQ's on the 1985 DRW's.

The write-up on the Pony is in Bullnose FAQ's.  (Even I had to search for it.)  But since there are 12 references to it in the catalog I doubt it was a mistake.

Ok, that will give him the PN to look for.

On the axle, the the change was only the pickups, the cab and chassis still had the old Dana axle. I found out about it the first time I got Darth inspected 24 years ago. The inspector raised the lift until the arms cleared the bed, then had me back in. He explained that the pickup rear was wider than the 1986 F350 wrecker they had.

Gary, on the WDDTYT thread, when I click on the latest listed time, it takes me to the beginning of the thread. That is the only one it happens on, too many pages?

Bill - I'd noticed that as well, but wondered if I needed to delete history in my browser.  However, if you are having the problem as well then it isn't my browser.  I'll report it.

Thanks.

Had the site, tell me I wasn't logged in again, and I used to get a dull purple color on any forums I had read recently, not right now though.

It cleared up all by itself, so no further problems.

Gary, any issues with posting pictures? I started a new thread in garage, shop and tools and could not get the image upload to even come up.

Is there a way to turn off that slide-down menu?  It blocks half the page.  It covers the reply message text box, so every time I go to a page (forward OR back), I have to scroll down, then up to get it out of the way.  SUPER-annoying...

Steve - Could you take a screen shot of it and post it?  I don't know what slide-down menu you are talking about.

Also, what device, OS, and browser are you using?  It may be that you are seeing something I'm not seeing.

Thanks in advance.  I'm sorry it is annoying you and hope to get it fixed ASAP.

The behavior has changed today (of course), but it was the menu from the top of every page.  Today, it has become minimized to just the big "Gary's Garagemahal / (the Bullnose bible)" with the little menu icon (3 horizontal lines) near the Left side that slides down into view when I'm lower on a page, and I scroll up.  Today, I have to click the menu lines to expand it this big:



But the previous few days, it was constantly the full (pulled-down) menu with all the other pulldown titles (FAQs, Cooling, Driveline...) that would slide down and block half the page, and the "X" wasn't there to collapse it.

A desktop system built by a MicroSoft programmer that I reinstalled Win7Ultx64 onto.  I'm using Chrome.  I hardly ever browse anything from my phone, and I never post from it.  I much prefer a full keyboard, a big mouse (for my big hands) with a wheel & right button, a big monitor, and a real browser.

Well, I haven't really done anything that should have fixed it, although I have published the site a few times as I'm adding new pages/documentation.  Perhaps that did it?  But I live on the site and, like you, use Chrome.  But, when out and about I will post from my iPhone X.

But, I will say that I'm having problems with Chrome.  On my Surface Pro (Win 10) there's a stuck drop-down.  But, unlike what you are seeing it is showing on every page, no matter what I look at.

Anyway, glad it appears to be fixed.  (I say "appears" because things like this tend to come back.)

It started again:



The first page or 2 today loaded normally (the menu appeared, and then rolled up on its own), but since then, it has been doing this (no X to close it - I have to jiggle the scroll wheel) on several pages.  Any time I scroll the page up, the menu automatically drops down again.  When I scroll down a few lines, the menu rolls up.
