Any advice on where to find aftermarket seatbelts for the front? I don't see anything on rockauto. thanks!

grinder with a 4" abrasive blade, 1/16" can be pretty precise.

I'm not saying this is the right way, but I always remove the nuts and cam washers from the back side, then use a cutting torch on the heads and the...

Alrighty, I got new cam bolts, I got new bushings, I got new ball joints, but I've also got some very seized old cam bolts on the lower control arms....

Lol, next time I'm sure you'll start out with the bigger BFG (reference the 6th pic in the 1st post of this thread). It's hard to hit it straight on...

BFH always wins. I saved and rebuilt my 89's they where in an amazingly good shape. I always try not to go Neanderthal, if I can help it, but...

Thanks Tim! Turns out I just needed a bigger f______ hammer. I put the four bolts back in and the ball joint separated after about 15 hits. NOW to...

I drained my whole system from the horizontal one, I feel if there was valving it would not have drained or refilled properly. Make sense?

If you want to save the boot,You could try one of these:...

It's best to only remove the big nut. Leave the 4 small bolts installed (to help with stability), then use the correct size pickle fork and a BFG...

If you still have these, I am interested. I am local in SoCal so I can come and pick them up.

My learning curve just tipped back to vertical :doh:

On my van, there is the horizontal AC condenser in the normal place, and directly below it is a second motor radiator. Here is the diagram for the...

As far as I know, that second 'horizontal radiator' is the evaporator for you air-con, not a second motor radiator, and they do not share fluids.

I have the exact same problem with my lower ball joint. All four bolts connecting it to the steering knuckle are out, but the ball joint won't move...

Prescient, that. I really liked it too, while it lasted. One day it fell off when I shut the hood, shattering into many pieces. Now they want...

Good. Silent Cal strikes again.

Ive just fixed a leak from the thermovax coupling thanks to this post:thmbup: I had out the thermovax coupling and replaced the o-rings on the shaft...

Actually...One of the connections seemed a little loose when I wiggled it a couple weeks ago, and the problem disappeared immediately afterward.

Congratulations!

Did lots of digging and found the info I need. I can’t figure out how to delete this thread though. 😮
