I guess that depends on what you mean by "completed". My Satellite runs and drives fine (at least it did before I took it apart, in December), so I've been focusing on fixing the rusty floors and restoring the interior. Once I finish the current round of work, I'm going to have some fun with...
I replaced my steering gearbox with a Cardone unit a couple of years ago. The unit itself has worked really well. It's smooth, consistent, quiet, and it doesn't leak. However, I'm pretty sure that the unit they sold me is either later model or C-body. I had to shim the gearbox to get the...
If my car ever gets a paint job, it will be because I did it in my garage with a case of spray paint!
It's not that I don't think the work is worth the price. It's because, if had $10,000 to spend on my car, I would be looking at new motors, suspension, etc. If that was all done, then I...
For $11,000 (US), I would definitely buy! It looks like everything is there and in good shape. Even if you have to replace a few rusty or worn-out parts, you'll still be $ ahead.
For sale, one 14x5” steel spare wheel and tire. It was in my trunk of my ‘66 Satellite when I bought it in 2020 and I think it has probably always been there.
The wheel and tire is located in Houston, TX
Asking for $40.
I put the Silas stuff on my roof a couple of weeks ago and it makes a difference. It simply attenuates the vibration of the steel panels. When I knocked on my roof before, I heard the usual sharp, hollow "knock". With the sound insulation, I hear a solid, dull "thump". The sound doesn't go...
Thats what I'm using. It seems to go on fine and the aluminum backing is thicker than the Thermotech stuff. That makes me feel better about using in footwells, where it will see some traffic.
I have the original spare wheel and tire for my '66 Satellite [at least I think it is]. It's just the regular 14" steel wheel with the Goodyear Polyglass tire still mounted. I don't need it and I would like to get it out of my garage. I installed Wilwood big brakes on my car a couple of years...
Are you looking for the book itself or just information? Hamtramck Historical has excerpts posted online if you just want to see the originals. HH Link
Thanks for the info and the pics.
I have changed my mind regarding the QA1 K-member. I'll do that swap after I finish up my current round of mods. (floors, interior, headliner, etc.)
Thanks for the info, FBBO!
This thread was very timely. I have the same Dorman kit that the OP described and I was considering installing it this weekend. After reading through this thread, I have decided to go the MoparLeo route.
I have the Wilwood master cylinder and I have never noticed it leaking. I have the raw aluminum version and I have noticed some corrosion below the lid, but no discernable brake fluid.
