I saw this auction posted on another site. I'm not sure if it's been posted here. Looks like lots of parts and some decent Model A's, AA's,...
OK, here's another rendition. the first attempt I was transferring the shape the front opening to the rear. What if I just raised the rear opening up?
It's Ford IRS Already installed. I knew it would be close but once the weight of the car was on it the sidewall of the tire hits the flange and ,...
Long story but my choice of rear axle is slightly too wide. There are not rims available with more offset. I don't want to spend the money on...
I'm not sure your car needs either. Like Jeff said, they are usually needed in a disc - drum combination. Sometimes the valves are in an combined...
different year cases had different spline axles. Unlikely you'll be able to reuse the posi as the higher gear ratio will have a much larger...
I have the HD. Other than the things mentioned it also has a forged steel crankshaft.
Any overdrive automatic trans will heat the fluid in OD. In a light vehicle there won't be much heating, heavy vehicle or towing there could be so...
I'm going to disagree with the Wiki article :p :D Light trucks were power giants also! [img] I have a '65 Townie and it has a Power giant...
Here's mine when I got it. I haven't done much but clean it up some and put it in dry storage. [IMG]
THANK YOU! Another one of those nagging questions in my head answered. [img]
Ignore the fellow blocking the RV picture! Anybody recognize this motorhome? It was parked on a waterfront lot in Onalaska Texas. It's gone now....
+1 How about every day? I was a transmission man in my former life. I've worked on thousands of 700's, 4L60's and 4L60e's. I think if the young...
The only way I have gotten a raise is to have another job and quit. :D If you're worth it, the boss will pony up to keep you. Be prepared...
I have aways thrown them away. Never noticed that they shifted too hard.
It's the overdrive! Trying to get more turns out than you put in, causes an increased speed differential between the converter components. That...
Except for pressure control which is electronic. I'd put a pressure gauge on first.
Make sure the fan blades are in the right direction. I fixed a jeep the other day that had the fan blades installed backwards.
Have you tried SMS?
My eyes aren't much better than the pics but I would guess with that tall rear valance that coupe was a pickup version.
It's been about four years but DPS came to my house to do a VIN verification on a old motorcycle I purchased out of state I can't remember who I...
Corvettes used ram horns up until at least 1980 Their wire set goes under and behind the manifolds for a clean look. If using Corvette wires you...
Almost certainly that trans has a Fairbanks (now Superior) hydraulic lock up kit installed in the valve body. AFAIK, you can't just turn it...
It looks like the whole library of photos is on Flickr
That's crazy talk. My congressman will get an earful from me. None of that makes sense. Years ago, when I worked at the chevy dealer. We had a...
The period factory overload springs I've seen were single leaf
Do you know the history of your car? It seems I have your missing hood and trunk trim pieces in my garage. :cool:
If you google "martin turbo charger" you can see similar manifolds.
Ah ha! Your camper looks very similar to a RV parked along the highway in Childress Texas. Seen here I always wondered what it was.
I've only reworked the factory harnesses. A '97 shouldn't be a throttle body. Make sure you know exactly what year because it makes a difference...
