below is reassembly with the bolts instead of the rivets. And instead of a lock nuts, i actually thread tapped the cage to save clearance on reassembly in the dash plate. I'd suggest to take your time & take lots of photos. Make notes or mark positions of the dimmer switch and where the gears...

while the epoxy was setting up. i cleaned everything with electrical contact cleaner. Everything else looked good. the plastics , gears , etc. i did this on the living room coffee table while i watched a game. Wife yelled at me for making the house stink *shrug* on all the contacts i used a...

here i'm further disassembling all the components for cleaning and inspection. below is where i found possibly the biggest problem - the glue was dried out and let go about half the coil spring off the ceramic wheel. The the ceramic wheel was in good shape yet & the coil spring was in good...

here are photos of the disassembly. i drilled out the rivets, the center rivet & the rivet holding the wheel. Then I was able to open the cage. my biggest issue was that smaller half gear and it's position when reassembling. i'd suggest to make a mark or carful note on which tooth is engaging.

greetings i recently rebuilt my dimmer switch in my 69 charger. i thought i'd share pics , process & maybe help someone else who wants to give it a go. i know these are not a cheap date if a new one is purchased. Around $200~ish if i remember ?? I wanted to try and refurb it, and if i screwed...

hello, I've done several head light alignments over my career , I'll explain & assume you've got little experience, I apologize if i seem man-splaining. :lol: In the shop we would always use the garage door method. Even on late model cars / trucks. I have a 69 charger & below procedure is how i...

That's pretty cool - you're famous ! demand royalties ! haha you can request free catalog on their website, you're right smack in the middle. on my 1969 charger, i'm fabing up some rear mounts for their sliders that will be tied to the frame. thanks for the feed back. now i'm more excited...

do you have calvert's leaf spring sliders ? your car looks just like the one in their catalog ... i ask b/c i'm currently installing full calvert set up. mono split springs / sliders / caltrac and their shocks. wondering if you love it ? -hubba

was your problem ever solved ? was it a tuning issue ?

just an update on this one while im here. i got another hinge and it that fixed the issue. i was installing it correctly, the springs were just worn out. thanks to everyone for their input.

i reviewed in detail. Your bracket is identical to mine. maybe my springs are week. they feel very strong , but when i add the door back on it wants to sag / not open all the way like the photos. maybe the glove box door gained weight ! lol not sure if this bracket can be obtained anywere and...

These are great photos. Greatly appreciated sir. I can at least compare to mine. I'm just going double check it.i think it set up the same. I suspect the springs my just be getting week. I'm going to add a shim behind each one and report back.

Yes , I have been in discussion with him. Sounds like a great option

@bospopp what did they charge you for that fancy unit. More then what I would need I think. But curious for research purposes!

Anyone have photos of theirs. Or can confirm mine put together right. Just want second opinion before I reinstall again

Thanks all. I appreciate the suggestions. The S&M doesn't refurb or grade raidios an longer. They do not stock on the speaker either. Waaa waaaa I don't really want to go all out with new stuff or amp n subs at all. I just thought it be neat to make it functional again with a new single dash...

Here some photos, cuz everyone likes photos. The radio looks ok. The wheel worked recently but noticed once I removed it , now it doesn't want to move. The speaker looks chunky ...

Hey guys. Removed my glovebox. Got motivated to finally do "something " about my radio. Ive owned the car since 1996. I don't know if it ever worked that i recall. I had a cd player in the glove box at one point , but I ditched that years ago and been listing to the exhaust since. I removed...

I took it apart and got out the spring component. I think everything is correct. But difficult to tell with out seeing another. I knocked back the center rod and removed the springs to see if I'm able to wind another time or something. They are pretty tight . I think if I put any more...
