Well it wasn't my truck but my 65 mustang. Rebuilt the motor and sent the crank out. Didn't know there was a pilot bushing in the back of the crank. Cost me 2 transmissions. Couldn't figure out why it burned up input shafts in about 100 miles. That 1.00 part back then cast me about 300.00 and when you are 16 that hurts.
