Part From Canada

On ebay there are parts that are from Canadian trucks. Are there any compatibility issues with F100's made in the U.S.? Is it safe to buy a part for your truck that comes from up North?

Well,
I've heard rumors that they eat their babies up there and that the water in their toilets spins backwards. But the truck parts are probably just fine.

Ok, maybe the water in the toilet thing is a little far fetched, but I'm convinced about the babies!

Dan,
You aint' right man!

The toilet thing is in China!

Aren't all our "Windsor" engines of Canadian origin?

I heard that about down there, and the truck parts are fine except ours have more rust

Australia???

And the Windsors were built down the road from me.

The parts should fit fine but Canadian bolts thread backward, keep it in mind when bolting things up.

67Merc,

but Canadian bolts thread backward

Been out here all day trying to bolt-up the head, (on one of my Windsor blocks)! No wonder the bolt wouldn't start right!

And to think I almost fell for that one...
