A bent shaft was suspected. It was turning funny. Maybe it was just an excuse to upgrade to HEI. I ran that truck hard for another 4 years. I was working locations all over the state [AZ]. After an engine/carb fire across the river in Glamis, Cal. in '98, I got towed home and have let it sit since.

Yes, it looks like it was designed for 7'' headlights, the 5.5'' quads are unhandy sometimes. [I have a '71 Jimmy, too.] But you could mount foglamps low on your rack and longthrow spots on the top rail to compensate for the hi-beam blockage. Have the spots on the Hi Beam circuit. You want to run low beams with foglamps. Hi Beams kick back too much glare in fog.
