nice stuff as for the beyond vertical problem a couple of old shokies on rubber dampers to ease it into the trailer bed

sounds like the starter motor is stuffed either that or you need a new battery which could mean your alternator is stuffed

can you check the voltage on your battery? if you have the correct voltage at your battery then the problem is the starter motor

before starting it again do a compression test (above 160 psi is good below 120psi is very not good) and note while doing it that if the head gasket is blown one or more cylinders may blow water

having said that it could be a welch plug or a cracked head

I like it especially in the second shot where it looks like a medieval mace ready to smite the unworthy

and it is very similar to what I had except the bar was a socket fitting

rear drums are mostly the same on my and L series, if you can get a disc setup its interchangable but when you put it on the MY series you have to play with the brake lines to get them to fit
