Re: My winter project
I'll be doing body mounts soon as well, feel free to offer any worthwhile advice. Also, do you have any details on the roll bar or if that same model can be bought somewhere? It looked like you were able to find yours used.
thanks |

If your mounts have never been replaced cut the bolt heads off spray WD or something and drive them out and you will save yourself a bunch of time. |

Not sure what to do next. The doors shut nice but rub at the header. Should I shim at A pillar or loosen up the front cowl a bit to see if it will relax some.
Thanks 7D2N |

:agree: - consider this before digging into this process - it takes awhile to get the panels back where they need to be.

Where did you find the rally wheels? I've been looking for some just like those but all I seem to find is beat up bent ones.

Re: My winter project
highjack...
wheelsvintique will sell you new ones, just sold a set that I got from my local you pull it, paid 5.00 a wheel and 5.00 for tires that held air for shop rollers. Keep an eye on the for sale forum, they pop up shipping is the deal buster, like 30- 35 bucks a wheel, depending on where they are located |

I am going to replace the door dust seals when the front end back on. Having installed a kit before and without the original gasket pieces it went fair at best. If your plans include installing new ones save the metal stapled parts you will need them.

Re: My winter project
Man, you are going to town. Good for you. I just picked up a white 71 (my first Gen 1). Off topic a bit from rust resto, but what size tires are those BFs you have? I love the way it sits and those rallys look killer. You have a 4 inch lift or so?
