Jerkoff still owes me $250. I loved my $300 painjob that cost me $600 in repairs and pealed off in 3 months. They painted my radiator to...
If I can get the new radiator in tonight and the shroud built I think this would be a nice test drive. Damn Summit gets my money every time I'm...
Just pull the axle shaft. When you do if it tapers from the wheel bearing area to the shaft then no. If its a straight shaft then yes.
One way to keep it a bit lower may be to use a 2WD tranny and a divorced T-case. Then you can move it back and use longer driveshafts with less...
My 53 Bel Air has a 1968 Camaro 10 bolt rear in it.
I'll be watching Reno. If they are dumb enough to show up to Hot August Nights that is. Only the dumb ones get caught as they say :mad: I feel...
Took it out for a test drive to the next town. It was 100F outside and I did start to overheat. While at idle it was slowly raising and on the...
From what you post basicly any full float rear. If this is for your truck why do you need them cut down? A D60 rear can be had for $50-100 and...
Good ideas! I'll try the angle a bit first and I think it does have a stamped lip on the back if I remember correctly. Thanks guys
O yeah put in a PowerMAXX starter the other night since the OEM ate the teeth. nice light starter and cranks nice but quiet.
Off the shelf backing that I bought with the gauges from E-gay. The seller is EZ wiring but they go by oldschoolparts or something. Great to buy...
Exactly!
Wow I've called 5 times, left voicemail, and an E-mail with zero response. Kit was great but the instructions for the 21 circuit is the same as...
Thanks for the links. I have an E-mail in to see if they can get me those oversized. I have a local fastener place that can but I don't really...
Bump. Anybody?
How about a Firm Maybe?
Very nice! Can't wait to see it cruising.
I disagree completely. I have zero experience with de-arching but I do have experience with re-arched springs and they are stiffer. Ride...
This makes sense actualy since your talking heavy wiring and inline to main power VS a voltmeter thats 18g wire would probobly act like a fuseable...
Another vote for keep the swampers! Just do some burn outs they will flatten fast with that compound.
Have you called a local upholserer and asked if they will sell you a few sheets? The custom upholsterers here have been great to BS with. They...
Since both are a link from power to ground how is it safer? I think the install/wiring are the real important part. If a gauge fails and creates...
Well putting double current through your 30amp meter is dangerous. But volt meters are good for cars and a clamp on meter for set up/diagnostics....
I dont chase threads on exhaust manifold bolts as it tends to make them a bit loose.
OK after sifting through many visor posts I have my next question. When driving my 53 Bel Air the visor is fine under 60MPH but over that it...
What about the Atlantis lot show? I love that one, and the A&W lot on Plumb lane after sunset. Going to either of those?
Probobly not but I'm hoping the LB event takes a lot of the slack out of the Reno event and brings it back toward what it used to be. Three weeks...
Soak in penitrating oil for a couple days. Warm them and carefuly take em off. Even if the bolt head pops off there should be enough shaft to...
Well after the Honey-Do's I had time to yank the starter and install a new pulse generator so no more speedo cable. Then I had to clean up and...
Do not do this! I live in Reno and HAN is the worst time for thieft, random vehicle damage, and wonderful gang violence. All the boyz from...
