Hello my fellow B Body members. Got a question I'm hoping one of you can help out with. I'm basically undoing a PO's half baked/half a$$ed work and I ran into something that just doesn't seem right with my 30+ years of Mope knowledge.
Got a '69 bird with manual brakes. However the studs holding the M/C are going from the outside with the threads going into the pass compartment. This isn't right is it? I know on A and C bodies it isn't as those have the studs coming from the inside out (unless it was the mount for a brake booster).
Anyway I pulled the nuts and the studs were pressed into the m/c so I pressed the studs out. They are serrated near the heads of the studs and I was wondering if anyone knows if these items are close to the OEM jobbers and if I can just remount them from the inside out. Yes? No?
Thanks in advance.
