Re: New member, first Ford project
That short day turned out to be not so short. It turned out I needed to remove the clevis and jam nut for the brake rods back at the rear brakes so I could get the anti-rattler on. That took some effort, and time, but I managed to get them off without breaking anything.
The car is off the lift now so that the upholstery can be patched. After that it does to a shop that will take care of rust damage that prevents us from mounting the running boards. The rear anti-rattlers in the catalogs did not match what was on the car. I am done for now, until the owner returns. No I can work on my friend's first-gen Miata. How's that for a contrast in car projects? |

Re: New member, first Ford project
When you talk to the radiator shop, be sure to tell them that the EXACT height of the core is important as the hood fastens to the top of the radiator. Speaking from experience, an extra quarter inch and the hood will not close properly and you will not be happy.
Water pumps should just go to Skip in Florida for a proper rebuild!!!
