I don't know the carbs so cant help on that. Looking at what you have done, the truck is coming along nicely. Great job!!!

Thanks terry, there is still a few things mechanical wise I need to do before I'm completely happy. Gotta get a fuel sending unit, figure out why the heater doesn't work, and adjust the valves

I do not know about the weber,but there's gotta be a ton of info on them on the web.I personally think they seem way simpler than the factory carb with all the vacuum lines and crap.

Yeah that's true. I adjusted the valves tonight and the truck seems to run a bit smoother and quieter

The other day i used radiator flush to flush out the heater core and it worked pretty well. Here's the nastiness that came out of it

I also replaced the pasenger side cv axle because it was popping really bad and i didnt wanna get stuck in the middle of the woods. haha
I ended up having to pull both of these out of the sand on thansgiving night

Okay cool. And does anyone have any idea why every time I try to go riding trails my carb acts up? Like I can stay on pavement all week and all the sudden when I try to have fun it goes to poop
