Disappointed, empty handed 3x'er here. Rub in my exercise and weight loss programme failure why dontcha! Ha ha! Tall variety would be good too....
32 3w. I've no idea about 34's but can't imagine they'd be much different? Easy to reproduce the important bits with flatbar etc. Chris [ATTACH]
You could swap the tube shaft for solid (or attach a slug of solid). The u/j end could be machined to double d to fit a dd joint. Or shaft with...
The new pic clearly shows that the start point is too far towards the rear which will result in something of an extreme of diminishing travel...
Look up the respective weights of the banger, fatty v8 and say sbc and be guided by that. If you add lowering when repairing the crossmember if...
Another vote here for looking at thrust angle. I've always had my cars on a 4 wheel alignment jig, usually Hunter. I've usually been surprised how...
But that would surely impact the Tesla access, already specified by the op? :rolleyes:
Distribution valve you say? Isn't there something that needs to be done with those when bleeding? Some kind of reset, or is it a replacement part...
What explanation did the shop give when advising you need an engine rebuild or replacement? They didn't by chance offer to take the car off your...
What exactly are you doing when determining there isn't anything going on? If it doesn't involve a pry bar you're not testing it properly. Chris
While you have the tape measure out don't forget to measure the critical dimensions of the pedal. Possibly nothing, but the pedal looks very...
What's the steering wheel diameter and how many turns lock to lock? Chris
The screw in the top left of the first pic is the idle screw. Back that out some. And read the manual! Don't get hung up on 'tuning', well not...
The safety sandals are just out of shot in the pic. Chris
Might be a good idea to post up some pics of the pedal arrangement as it is. It clear that the original build with the Jag suspension has long...
I'd be interested in learning more about that weakening, said the man who not a month ago heated and bent his stainless pitman arm! Well, it's not...
Socal (and possibly Roadster Supply) do F1 style mounts designed to work with fenders. Stainless and plain steel variants too. Not at Speedway...
Ah ha, not as old timey as I imagined! Looks nice, 80's or 90's build? Just fit a booster and be done with it imo. It's not really about pedal...
My understanding is that a small diameter grinder isn't the way to go, but I have no experience of this! Too much speed (10k rpm) and the small...
Isn't the obvious solution to fix the pedal ratio? It's not disrespectful to your grandfather, I'd argue, as way back guys weren't necessarily as...
The replacement axle will almost certainly be narrower than the original axle meaning likely interference between the spring shackles and the...
If you've not already got one, treat yourself to a mechanics stethescope. Best 10 dollars or so you'll ever spend! Sure you can do it with a...
[ATTACH] Hands held pneumatic plannishing hammer will make short work of that. But they're pricey things. Mine is a butchered Harbour Freight...
I've just checked on my 41 chevy coupe and as far as I can feel (can't see under there right now!) there are 2 braces in the door area ( about 1/3...
Im liking the heat shield. I'd suggest a simple tab to the crossmember as it looks to me like it would otherwise potentially flap about, maybe...
I made an oil pumper from a pump action one gallon hand cleaner container and some narrow bore hose. The pump mechanism screws straight onto oil...
Oh dear. Strangely this came to mind. Chris [MEDIA]
Brilliant! Worth the wait. Chris
Another vote for Magnum. I have such a setup. Recognise the snout of the hub and the caliper mount. Note that the mount is a cut from plate item...
Licence and insurance? Surely Hotrod Law negates the need for those on an around the block test? Applies to other things too, like seats, glass,...
Separate names with a comma.
