please any help would be great i need to know what i should be doing to keep my 69 up and running in good shape. this is my first old truck. is there any thing i should be greasing or lubing? any manuals you could refer me to. anything you could think of would be help full.

factory ford manuals from ebay would be good to have. you can also give the engine a tune up and oil change. grease the king pins top and bottom. as well as the grease the tie rods and steering linkage. also dont forget to grease the driveshaft u joints. check and or change the transmission fluid and check and fill the rear end oil.

[dave g]

can you explain how to grease the kingpins and fill the rear end and what do i use and need to do these things

Please don't post the same question in two different places. It makes it confusing for everyone. I'm locking down this thread and referring everyone to the other thread at the following link:
