Run the old as is and see what happens, new stuff is garbage, including poly mounts.
Another option, drill a hole through the entire mount and put a bolt/locknut on it, do not tighten all the way.
I replaced both rubber mounts on my 64 wagon, both made the car vibrate, it took me forever to...
Use the KISS principle, check all of the small things mentioned first, including any possible interference of the shift rods at the shifter.
Pulling the cover in car is possible.
Drain fluid first.
Definitely keep track of the position of the cover bolts. IIRC, the 2 long bolts that are fully...
I had the same issue, rebuilt trans, new shifter, everything adjusted correctly.
Side cover gearshift lever was the problem.
The squared off section that the shift linkage lever bolts to wears down causing the linkage lever to turn before the gearshift.
Also, the depth of the squared off...
I hear the ball & trunnion driveshaft joint is scary, yet it has been in my 64 for decades, many of those with a ripped boot.
Never heard of one fail in a Max Wedge car.
b/w the housing and brake back plate - black gasket
b/w the brake back plate and axle flange - white foam gasket
Green bearings have the o-ring seal, but I put the inner axle seal in as well.
Does the inside fold of the interior trim slide or clip over the same bracket that holds the hardboard headliner up?
Bracket is at the 2" to 3" mark on the tape measure.
Putting mine back in my 62 hardtop, and it seems it does.
Problem is, there is a also the same clip above the back corner of...
Ditto on my 62, along with 11" drum brake package.
Nothing wrong with the 62-63 housing, just swap in new flange axles and they'll also accept 65 and up drum brakes (tapered axle backing plates are slightly different).
64 is too wide, imo, just swapped out my 64 rear with a later one.
I have ACC carpet in 4 vehicles, fit absolutely perfect in 3.
In one, which was vehicle #3, it seemed to fit at first, but soon realized it probably was for a different year, but too late as I already trimmed it.
If I ever get another and it doesn't fit out the box it's going back.
All ordered...
My 62 back seat bottom frame.
This came out of my 4 door parts car, which I used to replace the rusted one in my 2 door, they were identical.
In pic frame is upside down.
The frame could be bent, broken, or rusted.
The factory put a large piece of foam under the center section of the seat, but I never understood how that could have added any additional support.
Maybe junior used to stand there when riding in the back with no seat belt.
On my Dart 2 door, I had to fix the upholstery job done when I got it back.
The back cover was too high up leaving a gap and exposing the staples.
Also my lower seat frame was rotted and 'fixed' but I found and replaced with a good frame.
After that, I fixed it without any issues.
I did 440 Source Stealth aluminum heads with a tunnel ram on a 383, 4 speed car.
Extremely drivable, drive it all the time, mounds of torque for reasonable $.
In my 62 Dart, converted to a bb, aluminum radiator and factory fan, no overheating issues.
But, if I were to install a new fan it would be the same as my a-body (except iirc the fan clutch would not be the low profile version, so a different part #).
In my 67 383 a-body, I have the factory bb...
Holy cow, he was one of the greats.
Never knew, more likely just forgot as more useless info filled my brain, that he even owned a 89 TTA.
I had one for 20 years, stupid fast in stock form, ran a 13.1 out of the box completely stock on a hot summer day.
Even with the 4 wheel disc, it was...
