    My daughter bought a nice 76 Luv 4 speed.
    Starts and drives great until 4th gear. Bogging down and won’t go faster than 55mph.
    Recently would drive 70+ on the highway.
    1st - 3rd, runs like a champ.
    Shift into fourth and she shutters a bit and just doesn’t accelerate.
    Carb issue?
    Fixed a faulty fuel line not long ago. Maybe not getting enough fuel?
    Would welcome your thoughts.
    Starts and runs great other than this issue.

    Some of these trucks had something on them that did something to the carb. when you shifted into 4th I think. Emissions stuff. Maybe look in a manual and see. Nice truck!
