Alright now i have both the old spindles off. I installed the new upper balljoints and outer tierods. I also assembled the one ofe the spindles with the exception of the calipers(dont know how) boy, does my back hurt.

 

Looks like you are making some good progress Tyler. Be sure you document everything with pictures. I use a product called Cold and Hot on my back whenever the muscles ache. It's a patch that you leave on for about 8 hours. Works great.

 

I am done for the day today. I cant find the battery charger for the camera.[:@] Ill look later tonight. Good thing i have an air ratchet because those bolts have not been touched for 40 years.

 

Ahhhh, an "air ratchet"... I would KILL for one of those right now!

Current progress on the '67:
- complete Grab-a-Trak system (front and rear) installed (after doing Shelby 1" drop) except for rear poly shackles (just came in special order), front strut bars, & rear sway bar
- complete Flaming River rack & pinion installed except for linkage from column to rack (those headers and clutch Z-bar are a pain to work around) and steering wheel
- ProMotorsports bump-steer kit still needs to be installed
- Then it's off to the shop for alignment

Wow, looks like I have more work to do this weekend than I originally thought... [:@]

Tylerdru - keep at it - you're making great progress!!!

 

How do you like the "Grab-a-trak"?

Good ride?

 

Doesn't sound like Ryan has his ride on the road yet. Stay tuned.

 

You got it Glen! The front end is still on stands.

The goal is by the end of the weekend (that is, if I don't get pulled into work).

I'll give you the 411 on the Grab-a-Trak once I get her back on the road. Since the 67 came with the original rough suspension and crazy-scary-sloppy stearing, I've never had the chance to punch that accelerator without fear of losing control. Hopefully, by Sunday, once everything is in, she'll be soaring (Glen - no pun intended!) down the road with all hell and fury! Can't wait to see what that 351's really got! [sm=gears.gif]

Tylerdru - we'd love pictures! [sm=Flahssssss.gif]

 

Man I hate Washington sometimes!!! I have My edlebrock 4bbl and manifold sitting here, the DHL guy tried to deliver my front end kit today and my disc brake kit should be here by Thursday... and all it does is rain and snow!!![:'(] Ode to live in Az
