    Cole's build thread.... am I missing something here

    A little here and there Don. Just re-thought what I needed to do. Got all the parts to throw the engine back together 4V but right now get the suspension up front done so she will roll in and out. Then I can work on dusty stuff out of the garage. :)

    Cole's build thread.... am I missing something here

    Im confused. What else is new. Trying to remove the springs so I can get new upper and lower control arms on and clean this whole thing up. So far I have the lower tie rod off the spindal but it looks like this spring needs to come out before I start working on upper and lower control arms...

    Rear Drum/Axel Question

    There's the problem. With a brake surface of 2.11" I obviously got drums for a 1 3/4" shoe. Give em away if anyone can use them.

    Slow and wish I could say steady Jordan but its grab an hour here and there. Got my cam, lifters, oil pump, gasket set.... the only things missing are push rods and a new valley gasket set. Brushed a bunch of the rust with brass bristles on the cooling section of the engine. Need to wheel it...

    Rear Drum/Axel Question

    No, nada, negative, nope..... Still binds up. I'm convinced its the drum. Didn't feel as heavy as the originally ones that came off. If the steel where the holes are drilled was 1/16 of inch thicker it would spin free and clear. Got the cheapest ones from Parts Geek. At least its not a costly...

    Rear Drum/Axel Question

    I have disk on the front Ritchie. I slapped a little axle grease on the lip of the drum and froze it up. No transfer so that wasnt it. Put some on the edge of the shoes and did the same. Found some grease on the inside lip of the drum. Just had my guy shave that lip off so now the surface goes...

    Rear Drum/Axel Question

    Need some tech help. When I tighten the lug nuts on both drums the drum freezes up and wont rotate. I think I may have gotten the wrong drums but they fit great and go on with ease until I tighten. I can inset some washers on top of the studs then install the brake drum and the problem goes...

    Cole's build thread.... am I missing something here

    Want to pull the fenders off this weekend. I found this for bolt locations. http://www.7173mustangs.com/thread-front-fender-removal Im thinking the front bolts up around the light are easier to get with the bumper off? Anyone ever do it without taking it off? One less thing leaning against the...

    Cole's build thread.... am I missing something here

    Got the timing gear off last night. New gears and chain arrived yesterday along with oil pump, spring and shaft and I expect the cam, lifters and gasket sets later this week. Floor pans and interior fender aprons due in also. Been stressing too many parts laying around with not enough time...

    Cole's build thread.... am I missing something here

    Hey yall. I dropped that distributor from my order. Got some floorpans and front and rear engine aprons. Thought I needed those worse but all the other is on the way!!! How does the upper (larger) timing gear come off. Removed the fuel pump eccentric bearing and the gear has a little movement...

    Jordan recommended the Cam so he gets credit for that. Thanks Mark and Jeff. Really I just found a place to get sound advice from good people who know and are happy to share.
