The dash going to floor and transmission pans were removed when I got car. ( parts are with the car ) Several wires and small metal clad cables/wires disconnected on back of speedometer, what would these have gone to??? I did remove the front drum grease seals this evening, will order front and rear drum seals tomorrow, bearings do say Ford B-1201 and seem to be in very good condition, I will repack them and continue to work on brakes.

Bruce, When you say metal clad cables there is a heater cable that is attached to the pass side of the console,post some pics of whats there.. The speedometer cable being from the axle housing tells me its probably factory installed,there is nothing missing if you have the shifter valve on the steering box with the cable that goes inside to the dash. Here is some pics of the frame isolators,if yours look ok then use them but keep in mind if they are bad or have become un vulcanized there aint much holding the suspension in the car.
