So I cracked open the tranny this weekend and found out what was done. The kickdown lever was removed and a hole was drilled into the kickdown...
There will be, Lokar comes with a neutral safety switch
I'm pretty sure mines been heavily modified. From the tag on the servo cover the trans is from a 68 to 70 Torino/Fairlane/Falcon
No kick down lever either so I assume it's been modified. Now, how important is that nut then when it comes to a Lokar shift arm? The lokar arm...
No, nothing like that
Hello all, I recently bought a 23T that has a 302 backed by a C4. It had a B&M floor shifter when I got it but the shifter is shot, it's rusted,...
I think that because of the age, even if I get regular tags in NJ I don't have to get it inspected.
Honestly I've just read up what they list. Historic plates are only for unaltered cars, Street rod plates are for altered cars where the owner is...
Oh yeah, it's going to be a blast to drive. Not that my Dodge and Vette aren't but I love the simplicity of this 23.
It hasn't shown up yet but here's a pic from the dealer [ATTACH]
Hey all, I just bought a 23 Ford roadster. It's not a T bucket, but it's not stock either. Still has full fenders, running boards but no hood,...
Radio engineer in the wireless industry for 25 years.
Just to close this up, the push rod needed to be adjusted, I think the heat related lock and firm pedal was confusing me as I had this once before...
Never heard that before, nor have i ever had a problem with the AAJ front set up
Exactly and I'm on board with looking at the free play. I just need time now, which is in short supply until the weekend. I work in an industry...
I will check it this week or this weekend, work is a little crazy right now
And I do agree with this, however, the condition of my rear drums became a safety issue. Because of the hub/drum assembly getting replacement...
Last year when I installed the front disc I checked the rear drums. They were not leaking at that time but there was visible rust. This past...
When the front brakes were swapped over last year I installed a new MC for disc/drum. The push rod was adjusted at that time because on the first...
Not too easily. I tried but the leverage and return spring make it difficult to get a good feel for it. But I will try again this week.
I was thinking about that as well, not something I measured so it's very possible to be part of the problem.
Did you replace the MC with the exact same one you had or something different?
Well I measured with my caliper ( the tool not the brake) and got roughly the same depth between the old MC and new MC. The old MC has a depth...
I know for sure, I verified
Right and rebuilt is the wrong word, set up is probably better.
The MC I showed is the Mopar MC rebuilt by MPB for disc/disc applications. MPB and I went over a lot of details regarding pedal ratio, bore size,...
Well exactly what you just said. Sometimes you need a different perspective. I honestly thought this was a brake fluid overfill issue but a lot of...
MC is built for disc/disc
All 4 locked up/grabbed, so my plan of attach will be two fold, first, rebleed the lines, make sure the fluid isn't to the top. Drive around and...
Roger from AAJ is hard to get a hold of, last time I spoke with him he wasn't in the best health. MPB has been helping and gave me some advice....
