    I haven’t visited this site in a long time. I got an email that this thread started back up again. Let me get this straight, are the Aussie bushings that James is selling at the inflated price the same bushing that the Aussies said would be cheaper than any bushing offered by current supplies??

    I found what looked like a factory spacer under my driver rear coil spring before I rebuilt the suspension. I assumed it was from old sagging springs. Once rebuilt with ALL new suspension my car sat uneven. So I slipped the spacer back in. I didn’t care to take car to frame shop. It doesn’t look bent but who knows. The spacer did the trick

    Don’t know about the “groan” but the first thing I thought of about the “chirp” was a loose/worn belt under the hood. Check your belts for wear & tightness

    Good Q. I don’t know the specifics on Joe’s 183 grams. Nor am I qualified in this area. I did mentioned to him that 183 grams sounded like a lot. But that was only comparing his outcome to the measly 10 (ten) grams my 401 was off by. I can tell u that at 10 grams I felt the vibration & hated it. Give me a couple more weeks & I’ll be posted my rebuild process

    Nailheads require entire lower assembly to be balanced together (crank, pistons, connecting rods, end caps, bearings, H balancer & flex plate).

    @RivNutdid U find the correct size clips? Did u figure out how many we need? Were the CARS clips correct? I am now in need of a whole set of round clips too. Any direction would be appreciated

    I can check on my car when I get home tonight. I think the top piece is sandwiched between dash & column. U might have to loosen the steering column so it comes down a bit

    Your heavy duty fan clutch isn’t broken. It’s doing exactly what it was designed to do. I did a write up about this on my build thread. Switch it back to a standard clutch & you’ll be happy Here are screen shots & a part number for the standard fan clutch u need

    If your not in a hurry…take your time & do it yourself. If your in a hurry, pay someone. If your wife is like Ed’s, go for the team effort concept. If she’s like mine, stop considering it 🤷🏻‍♂️
