Re: #3 The Sickness Continues
Done yet? Whats the drop on the spindles? I was thinking about puttting some on my 64 but I think my headers will drag. Guess I'll have to get some shorty headers. Should heave got them in the first place.

Re: #3 The Sickness Continues
Here it is at its new height!!!!
![]() ![]() The bottom spring bolts got ground down and pounded up thru the trailing arm. The tops came out by using the air chisel and folding the retaining plates and then sawing off the bolt with a sawzall. I had an extra set, so I didnt care about preserving them. Visit the pic of the aftermath ![]()

Re: #3 The Sickness Continues
Didn't get the panhard in as I was getting tired, but wanted to drop it down and see what it looked like. Here it is. Started mocking up the ms/cyl and went out and got new brake lines. The people at Autozone didnt know what they were
![]() I was going to cut a gasket out of a sheet of material I had and found three T-stat gaskets. Check it out; they're perfect for brake cylinders!? Lucky I guess. Bolted in the ms/cyl so I can start working some lines in at some point. Later........

Re: #3 The Sickness Continues
I would love to stop by and check out your builds in person some day....
BTW, the only qualification Auto-Zone has for employees is that they have half a brain and the propensity to argue with every customer. Example; telling me the 400 small block valve cover gaskets are the same as my 400 Pontiac.... IDIOTS! ![]()

Re: #3 The Sickness Continues
Dave, this thing is rollin' ramhorns with about 2'' pipe. It's only a 283. The pipe is tucked up hard so clearance isnt an issue at this hite.

Re: #3 The Sickness Continues
Thanx dude!!!
Just worked on the brake lines and started bleeding out the system. The front was easy and the rear is giving me grief. Pumping the brakes and using a vac to get it through. ![]() ![]() ![]()

Re: #3 The Sickness Continues
Bleeding the brakes using a jar of brake fluid and a line from the bleeder works nice.
I have used this method for decades with fantastic results.

Re: #3 The Sickness Continues
OK, the brakes are still F'n with me, but the fluid is through and its just a matter of getting the rear done. Worked on some other stuff today....
Drivers window regulator was shot so I replaced it. I guess the PO lubed the regulators with every bearing service!! ![]() Took a shot of the door without the vent; damn, one piece windows would look good on these doors!! ![]()

Picked up some speed bleeders tonite. I'll put them in tomorrow and see if I can get the rear done. It's hard to bleed stuff by yourself ![]()

Re: #3 The Sickness Continues
Been very busy working many hours and then had people come in for T-giving. Therefore I haven't posted an update in awhile.
I decided to look into the rear brakes and they were a mess. They were due for a rebuild so I decided to get it all done. Didnt take a bunch of pics as we've all been there. First pic the old set-up; adjusters all the way out and the shoes cracked in the center at the rivets. Drums were grooved and wheel cylinders were shot. One was frozen, the other beginning to leak. Got all my parts at local auto stores. Wheel cylinders, shoes, hardware and new drums. Used the FAQ thread to stare at some pics of a drum rebuild as it's been awhile. Goes together easily after you start doing it. Have a pic of the completed brakes and one of the new tires mounted on the 6-lug rally wheels. Went with 235/70/15's for the old school kinda look. I'm also adding relays to the headlites and repainting the grill and bumper as I hated the black. They are silver now....more pics soon.

Re: #3 The Sickness Continues
I've worked on this one quite a bit and haven't updated in awhile. Just drove it around today for the first time and it was nice.
Let's see: Relayed the headlites, repainted the grill and bumper, bolted on the Rally's with 235/70/15's, new hoses, filters, cut out about 20' of unused wiring, new brakes, installed volt and tach, rewired a bunch of stupid crap, tool box in but not mounted.......you all know how it goes!!! ![]() ![]() Here are some pics for today..........Merry X-mas ![]()
