Hi all, earlier this week I had to pull an axle to replace a leaking seal. The brake bar for the parking brake was preventing me getting the axle out so I loosened the brake shoe return springs and did the axle job and put the brakes back together. I now have the symptoms of a failing master...

Hi all, I want to replace the rear axle seals but once I pulled the axle I’m pretty confused about what I’m looking at. Firstly, in the first pic,is that the seal I can see, or is that a shoulder that it rests against? secondly, the metal where the seal should go is horribly scarred and it...

Hi all, I thought I’d had this question answered. I.e ‘is there a hole drilled to locate a shoulder belt in the roof lining above the doors?’ (67 Coronet). The answer seemed to be ‘no’, but here’s an additional query. I read elsewhere on FABO today that ‘new for 67’ cars did have a hole and...

Hi all, I’ve fitted an aftermarket fuel gauge (recommended elsewhere on FABO) which is the correct ohm range. I went to check the sender unit connections and was suprised to see two prongs. I earthed the strap and connect sender wire to prong 1 Gauge goes to below empty Connected sender to prong...

Hi all, having ascertained that my wiper motor is not working and rebuild costs and shipping to the UK prohibitive, is there any way of fitting an alternative motor from a let Mopar, I’ve found 3 speed C body motors at a better price. ive read multiple threads on this but somehow not found the...

On my project 67 Coronet I’ve managed to get most lamps functioning, but a couple of things are catching me out. Rear lights and turn signals, brake lights all good. Front sides/turn signals have opposite functions: drivers side, side lamp works, turn signal not. Passenger side is opposite...

Trying to remove the wiper motor (3 speed) from my 67 Coronet. I e read threads but there seems to be contradictory advice. Do I have to undo a nut that is just barely visible on the end on the motor from inside the engine bay having removed the 3 retaining nuts, or do I have to mess with the...

Hi guys, over here in the UK wheels are increasingly hard to find. I can get Torq Thrust in 7 x 15 but only with 3.75” backspace. I’ve measured and checked but would rather hear from somebody’s own experience. The tires would be 235/60/15 which is about 9.25” wide, nothing crazy. This is for...

Hi all, despite a quick search I didn’t find info. I’ve recently acquired a ‘67 Coronet 440 and wish to add modern seat belts. My question is, has anybody been able to fit an anchor on the B pillar area or does the rear side window glass/mechanism prevent this?

I’m still getting used to owning my first mid sixties B body (67 Coronet) and was suprised to see that 5” wide wheels were offered as standard. Is anybody still using such narrow rims and if so, what’s the handling like on the street? I ask as I can find some pretty cheap AR Torque thrust 15 x 5...

I know this is probably the dumbest question I can ask, but bear with me. What is the correct bulb? Front left turn signal/marker lamp. Nothing I’ve got fits and Rockauto sent the wrong bulb too. it looks like the socket has offset pin terminals but difficult to see.

Hi all, I thought Mopar didn’t make 15 x 6.5” steels. These are advertised over here in the UK. The advertised PCD of 110mm just seems wrong to me, should be 114.3 (4.5”), surely? Any thoughts...

Sorry for such a simple query, only had the car a short while and FSM doesn’t actually tell me. How do I remove the headlamps? I need to check the bulbs and try swapping lights over to check them.

Hi all, can anyone tell me what size the upper rear shocks bolt size should be? My barn find car has one missing and I need to find the right size to order. I can’t order one from the USA as I’m in the UK, hence the request for size if anyone knows? 1967 Coronet

Hi all, I’m wondering if anyone has bought and used any of the ebay advertised UCA’s such as this one...
