    Front End Alignment Specs vs Behavior (Return to Center)

    The best settings for alignment (with a stock suspension) I found is to use +2* positive caster and -.50* camber. These settings give me good straight line stability and steering wheel return to center. This has been my alignment setup for many years. When I used the stock factory alignment...

    Can't Remove Caliper From Front Disc Brake Rotor

    The piston is probably seized. So just what Hemikiller said: "choose violence". Or try explosives. :oops: Ron

    Fast ratio steering gear

    That is true. I am running 2* positive caster on mine and that is pretty close the limit of the adjustment. Ron

    Steering gear replacement?

    I read that in the Ford manual Re: the replacement balls and I agree with you 100%. I didn't have play in the 1-2 inch range on mine. I guess I have been lucky with my steering box lasting this long. I set it up the adjustment when I had the box out and used an inch pound torque wrench. I think...

    Steering gear replacement?

    Have you tried adjusting it? My box in my 72 is original with 157K miles all I have done over the years is replaced all the seals, kept clean fluid in it and adjusted the sector shaft pre-load and it still functions well. Providing that you still have good power assist you could save a bunch of...

If it was my car I would not right it off until I knew more of what lies beneath. 2 days ago my daily driver 2017 Mazda 6 got hit in the left rear bumper when I was in the store for 5 minutes...

    F-ing HOA issue!

    Do you know anybody with a clapped out and faded Tesla you could park in your driveway? It would be a fun experiment. Being California I bet the HOA would say nothing. Ron

    Worth keeping old parts?

    I kept 90% of all my original parts. They really don't take up that much space in reality. It is only original once as they say. Whoever "they" is. Ron

    Edelbrock 1406 Bog

    I went through everything you did when I originally installed a 1406 on my Cleveland. I had that full throttle "bog" off the line. I recalibrated that thing until my head spun. I changed to a Holley with a vacuum secondary 25 years ago and never looked back. I sold the 1406 to a friend with a 67...

    Electric Choke and Wiring

    I used the throttle solenoid power feed wire on my 72 2V. I removed the solenoid when I changed to a Holley. It supplies 12 volts with the key on. I think most people use that as their choke power supply. Ron

    Car Insurance

    BFG Radial T/A vs Cooper Cobra for smooth ride

    I was referring to overall compounded inflation beginning fiscal year 2021. The 20% average includes the CPI and PPI as the leading indicator. The overall high inflation numbers are an undeniable fact. Government overspending of imaginary money caused it. Economics 101. Ron
