    Frame connectors on a rotisserie car?

    My car had some sag without the connectors and the drivers door stuck a little bit. I noticed that the doors closed perfectly when I had it on four jack stands under the frame rails. That is how I set it up to weld in my connectors. I can close my doors with one finger now.

    Can't hook up '65 Barracuda Rear Shocks

    yeah, what he said. I had a bear of a time with the ones on my 66 cuda but finally got them by suspending the rear and then jacking up one side of the rear to make the angle better.

    How to set caster?

    That's what I love about this site, when I have a question, you guys usually already answered it. I just bought the rebuild kit off ebay and replacing ball joints and bushings. At the risk of highjacking the thread, How do you get the bushings out of the A arm?

    Fixing door sag. with frame rail connectors?

    I took a look and did see a little cracking in the welds below the door sill, see picture. Frame connectors are on order and I'll redo the welds when I start the body work. The door hinges are solid as a rock.

    Fixing door sag. with frame rail connectors?

    The guy I got the car from was about 340 but I think he didn't drive the car much in that condition, he could barely move. I'm 6'3" and right around 260 but I can fool those weight guessers at the carnival because I carry it well.

    Fixing door sag. with frame rail connectors?

    My 66 cuda has a very slight door sag, so slight in fact that you can't see it. I just notice it because when I set my F.A> in the car the door doesn't close properly unless I slam it. I was looking at seymour_scamps frame connectors and getting ready to order a set thinking it would fix my...

    Trying to find a complete rebuild kit for the front suspension of my stock V8 1966 Barracuda. Can any of you fine folk point me in the right direction? The immediate problem is that my left front tire has developed a leaning problem, the bottom is way out and wearing the inside of the tire...

    car pulling to the right

    If you are referring to bleeding the brakes, you should start with the wheel farthest from the master cylinder and work in. For American LH drive - right rear, left rear, right front, left front. I don't believe brake bleeding will cure his problem though. Sounds more like a bad caliper or...

    car pulling to the right

    brakes sticking when hot will definitely cause the car to pull. I would make sure the brakes are fixed correctly first before looking for other problems.

    Why some guy shouldn't own welders.

    that looks like my first welding attempt. I'm still not very good, but I leave the important welding to a professional.

    Squeeling coming from front end...

    I thought we were talking drum brakes, but replacing a missing dust cover is another big clue that something may be amiss.

    Squeeling coming from front end...

    This will probably get me in trouble with some of the professional mechanics on here but here goes; they had to remove the wheel bearings to get at the brakes. they should have inspected, cleaned and repacked (grease replacement) them. a good mechanic would be able to tell if they were bad...

    Squeeling coming from front end...

    sounds like the brake people didn't repack the bearings, put them on too tight, or not tight enough. I agree with redfish, you need to have a talk with them.

    So how did you fix it? I think I'll replace mine just for the peace of mind if the parts can be found.
