That spring doesn't belong there just a washer and cotter pin. The cable has way too much slack.
Looks to me like a ujoint strap bolt perhaps. It looks like it's only about 1/4" diameter or a bit less so don't think it's a pressure plate bolt...
I have a 79 fiat spider. The seats aren't exact but that knob on the end of the lever looks identical. Those used a bunch of Italian parts (of...
Better photos. I just spent a year or two restoring a fiberglass tub but I'm not sure what I'm looking it. The third photo looks like it may be a...
My 75 has them as well, or at least the passenger one. The driver's side one apparently rusted out and rubber part fell off at some point.:D
Your clutch over center spring is on correctly. Afaik a 75 won't have any other clutch return or brake return springs on the pedals. I don't think...
Thanks I ended up fabbing up a quick spacer today and it's back together with everything in the correct order.
Hi, Getting my 75 back together after paint and having issues with getting a good fit where the two bolts on the bottom of the column-to-dash...
You have an aftermarket shaft - probably borgeson - on there. it doesn't maintain the right spacing between the ujoin and the bushing at the...
Great info thank you.
I'm changing out the tank on my 75 because it's full of sludge and varnished gas. Does the front lip of the tank get bent up or down for the z...
I understand the need for a balanced assembly, but if you've made it 20 years (!) I wouldn't get too wrapped around this. It should have failed...
This isn't exactly the case. I used one of the repro pre-72 tubes (Omix or Crown, can't remember which) in my '75 two years ago. Just had to cut...
x2 - what's the current backlash? Not knowing where you've been, if it were mine I would try to pull a tiny bit of shim out of the pinion,...
The technology has changed. The GM computers don't "need" a chip burner, etc. I have Dynamic EFI's EBL and can tune over Bluetooth. Moates Ostrich...
At some point I was going to try repacking my leafs. When I do this I'm going to round-off all the sharp edges at the ends of the leafs and put...
I see now. One does look offset as far as the hole, for which there is no simple fix. One just looks bent (BFH will fix that straight away),...
Technology has changed. Quality leaf springs built for offroading do not use clamps tight against the springs. They float above the main leaf a...
Stock YJ springs have clamps EXACTLY like that too. The ones on my 94 sat about 3/4" above the leaf (till I cut them off in order to rebuild the...
Don't flame me but I'm running a new $40 HEI distributor for AMC i6 from ebay (which ended up being a local shop oddly enough who have been...
