I still need a right front caliper because I got ripped off by a long time member who refuses to even reply to my messages. Looking for a 4 piston caliper for a 1972 Valiant

Yeah...my brass fittings accidentally got stuck to a magnet. I guess it's my own fault. The shop had sets of fittings in little baggies. They had gold and steel gray. I didn't specifically ask if the "goldtone" was brass. Next time I'm bringing a magnet.

Got a part number i needed from someone on this forum...checked Amazon...states in stock..."order in next 7 minutes to receive by 6/22"...ordered yesterday in my 7 minute window...selected my "PRIME" shipping...checked status today...NOT shipped...expected to arrive 7/12-7/26...grrrr

Replacing 9" drums with KH 4 piston discs. The flex line i have doesn't fit through the tab welded to the sub frame. The tab and original flex line have a flat spot on one side, I presume it's to keep the line from spinning. The disc brake flex line does not have the flat spot and won't fit...

Had my head ported, polished, milled, and fitted with oversized valves and hardened seats...and it was CHEAP!!! I saved so much I'm considering using long rods and forged pistons in the bottom. It was done by an independent drag racer who is also a professional machinist. He has a home shop and...

That's all

Okay...I'm thinking the equal reservoir maybe the right one...if there is no residual valve in the rear port How do I check for a residual valve without destroying the tube seat?

Does anyone know what the "special tool" is to remove the tube seats from the master cylinder?

Do front disc/rear drum master cylinders have a small front reservoir and large reservoir? I am putting KH 4 piston discs on the front of my 1972 Valiant. I ordered front disc/rear drum master cylinder from Rockauto way back when. The one I received has 2 equal reservoirs, but the port sizes...

Okay...trying to do a KH 4 piston swap and all the bushings. When I installed the UCA's in what I thought was the original position the ball joint wasn't even close to the spindle. When I swapped it to the other side the ball joint lines up, but it's at a crazy angle and I'm 99% sure this ISN'T...

I trying to redo my front end. Why do I have one tie rod really extended and the other closed to make the spindles roughly straight? Getting the steering wheel straight is another subject...

Is there a source for glass for 4 door cars? The only repro glass I've seen is for 2 doors...

I'm still trudging along on my drum to disc conversion on my 72 Valiant. Switching the 9" drums to 4 piston KH disc. I was about to order a master cylinder and I realized I don't know if the drum master cylinder pushrod is the same. Does anyone know? Manual brakes if that makes a difference.

I'm just wondering whatcha think... when it comes to headers, Aussiespeed or Clifford?

Does anyone know the size and grade bolt I need for a 72 Valiant?

1972 Valiant with slant 6. Do I need to jack up the engine to replace idler arm? It looks like the bolt will not clear oil pump otherwise

I don't have confidence in any of the 40+ year old oil soaked harmonic balancers I have. What is the best replacement?

I am wondering if the little notches on the upper control arm bushings need to installed in a specific manner. I can't see any reason why it should, but I thought I would check it our prior to installing them.

Okay...it's been a LONG time since I've checked compression...let's see if I remember correctly... let the compression gauge needle jump 4x's I remember something about '20'...is it all cylinders within 20#'s of each other, or 20% of each other, or does '20' not factor in at all...

Okay...I was in the process of KH SBP disc change over on my 72 Valiant, and decided to redo ball joints, bushings, ect. for the sake of safety. I have found what appears to be repairs to the K frame. The tab for the idler arm looks as if it was broken and welded. It seems strong enough, but I'm...

Intuition tells me that manual steering would have less chance of failure. What would need to be changed to switch from power to manual? Is my thought process completely screwed up here?

Is there a trick to get these out? If so, what is it? I'm having what sems to be a disproportionally hard time...

I think everyone has convinced me to do all the UCA, LCA and strut bushings...so where/who has the best quality/price ratio?

:?:?Working on disc brake swap-over on my 72 Valiant...now that stuff is opened up I'm considering control arm bushings too. The car will just be for driving, cruise nights, having fun....not doing a restoration or performance build. So...how much of a can of worms am I opening? I already don't...

looking for a ball joint socket for my 72 Valiant

Any ideas where I can find how much my 72 Valiant cost new?

My 72 Valiant suddenly changed from running good to not idling. Used it for several errands today without problem. Then on the last one I put it in gear and it stalled. It started right back up, but I have to keep the rpms relatively high to not stall. If I take my foot off the gas it stalls...

Has anyone purchased the VAL Wheel Kit from Scarebird? The description on their site is not that informative. Is this everything needed to do the swap?I've tried emailing to no avail. Makes me wonder if I should go a different route...
