This mount doesn’t work for me. This mount will allow you to mount the c3/c4 paired with a 2.8 to the car frame. I...

    I was under the impression that the front ends for all the series front ends were interchangeable. I think I might be wrong. Today I lowered my series 2 body down on the series 5 front end and it doesn't quite fit. (I bought this front end because it was all set with the Jose' motor mounts...

    Caster shims/control wedges

    I have removed my front crossmember and the caster wedges are crumbly. Does anyone have a source where I could get new ones, and also some advice on the angle. I read in another thread that 4 to 5 degrees is preferable to the original 3.83 degrees. I can’t pretend to know much about this. Any...

    Series I & II Shock Mount conversion to Tube Type

    I moved the upper shock attachment to the rearward hole. As stated in DanR's POST 2 Quote: For the top brackets, the bolts/studs are always high (towards the top) and offset to the rear. It made it a very close fit between the shock and e-brake rod. I went ahead and bent the e-brake rod a...

    Gas filler neck not secured to body

    I am puzzled as to how my gas filler neck goes back together. (I didn't take pictures!) The tank filler neck didn't fit well when I removed it so I guess the way it was wasn't correct anyway. My 62 series 2 has a larger tank than the original, though it fits like a glove in the original...
