The last picture is of Monty......if you could read his mind......."he has gone and got yet another project"
Some thoughts......and questions.......is that seat original
Ford issue??.... I don't think so.....but my first 2n.......also......you can see in the pictures that I have
a kingpin problem.....any good techniques for straightening the radius arms cold??
 
Ed, looks like a fun project. Here is how I straighten bent radius rods. It is a 20 ton press and be sure to have the 2X4 under the pressure points.

Looks like you and I have the same press Del.
I straighten them the same way now that I have it.
Others have used a bottle jack chained between the
radius rod and a 4x4 with success.
 
That is it then.....gonna tell Mrs. D and that Del and Royse said I needed a press......and I have been wanting one!!.....thanks guys!!

Make sure you also tell her that this press is WAY too small
for any "serious" work. Sure, it'll straighten radius rods and bust
your arm if you're not careful, but to do some serious damage,
errr.....work, you need one much, much larger!
I would suggest air over hydraulic. Maybe you can get a new
air compressor to run it too! ;)
