But depending on the alt capacity too. If being low, at iddle will show still the regular discharge without registering the headlights load and as soon you give gas, will show a really HIGH charge reading which sums the recovering of the previous discharge stage PLUS the load to feed headlights...

Well. The hole on axle pedestal is larger on 73. Need to get filled (maybe welding a washer?) to accept correctly the spring stud, which is 5/16”. 73 and laters is 3/8”. Pretty sure the ride height will also change a bit raising on rear maybe 3/4”-1”? (Under the same springs conditions)

68/69 are vacuum, but 70 is electric

That warning advice is related to the factory assembly, not aftermarket. Very diff assemblies.

Correct, that’s the 2 speeds motor parking cam setup onto a 3 speeds motor. 3 speeds motor doesn’t require any external parking cam setup since is built internally.

Really? Suppodselly there is specific 73 and laters shocks to fronts!!!!! And still being specific doesn’t work?

Just barelly noticed this thread. Won’t read all the thread but just share my experience. I got the 1.06 from FF and that allowed me a lower ride height with about about same stock stiffness. Lower ride height with stock bars would make it bounce a lot. But the spring rate is also related to...

Yes, as I has told, still with regular headlights mounts, there is still some room for doors. Maybe a bit tighter, but still enough. Now on a Coronet… dunno.

Yeap, 73/74 non cruise control cars got this bottle But that location was used for the cruise control unit on cruise control cars, then the washer bottle changed its location to the one shown on the 74 RR advertisement

Auto console requires a small cut on bottom section to match the floor hump. Somebody in the past was selling on eBay small cardboard templates to make the cut and proceed with the conversion without spend the price of an original 4 speeds console. (Not reproed on those days yet, like it is...

The washer fluid bottle is for 73/74 Cruise control cars. On a side note, somewhere I read the sunroof manufacturer was tipically the same than provided these roofs for Volkswagens. What about lurk into the VW boards or groups searching for parts or advices?

Gauges… feed them at studs with any DC source between 1.5 to 5 volts, (battery, phone charger) The needle should move.

Just to let you know how it works the VL Although this is not the kind to be inserted into a PCB like the one on your car but wired, the science is the same, just different prongs disposition

I did the same with a small autometer tach. Exactly same spot, just right underneath the ashtray on my 74. Being an auto car, doesn’t really need to get a constant view over it. Just referential.

Did you keep the bumper fillers? Or did you get closer the gap between body and bumper?
