1970 IHC 800A A review from North America

After buying it I had to change:

Spring bushings: Old ones were completely shot and made for a very noisy unstable ride. Much better now.

Radiator. Patched it first, but had to change it in the end.

Swapped in a running 304 to replace the original, which the previous owner had taken apart.

Carburetor. Runs much better with a rebuilt carburator.

Had to bolt the top down properly, much quieter now.

Pinion seal was also changed.

Great truck. Fun to dive.

Could do with a power steering upgrade as the original manual steering is exciting until you get use to it.

Also a Dana 44 with disk brakes up front would be worth doing, other than that these trucks are ready to go wherever you want to.
