Brother Craig at mobileparts can hook you up on the items needed for the rebuild. I got quite a pile of goodies from him for my 67 wagon. Getting started on the majority of it tomorrow.

Here are some of the items for the upcoming chassis improvements. FF Bilstein RCD valved shocks, FF 1.06" t-bars, FF tubular/improved geometry upper control arms, 70 k-frame with a homedone sway bar[ thanks KernDog for the info], General Springs XHD rear springs with added 2.5" arch, 11.75"...

I ran some errands today so I was able to see/feel the difference in the wagon with the SFC's only. Big difference, way more solid in how it handles dips/curves/driveways/underground utility plates/speed bumps. Can't wait to see how the rest changes. I put it up in the air to put another coat of...

I recently purchased and used the vacuum unit, plus the one man valve followed up by the 2 person for the final. The vacuum worked great for the flushing. I did pull the bleeders out and put a little silicone/dielectric paste on the threads to help seal them from the vacuum portion. The old Mity...

Replacing your wear items, bushings/joints/tie rods/arms along with better shocks/ new torsion bars/new springs/sway bars, makes a big difference. Brother Craig, post 5, can hook you up on quite a bit of US made, quality stuff. And he's more or less in your hood. Your purchases will get dictated...

The Hotchkis package will work from the 69 listing with the exception of the frame connectors and rear springs. The rear springs can be used however if you get the front spring hangers that are made by AR Engineering. They can be had through Mancini and Firm Feel. The front and rear length...

Welcome from the central coast of Cal, EH! You most likely have some ground issues too.

Put my SFC's in today on the wagon.

The money making hybrid project went home today. Did some cleaning under the lift then put the wagon on. Got the SFC's welded in. Will see what a difference those make when I do some driving tomorrow. After I get done with my Saturday cars n coffee with the homies, I'll put the wagon back on the...

Steve took his car home today. Lift is now open for the wagon project.

This company has quick service. generalspringkc.com. I bought my soon to be installed XHD +2.5" extra arch from them.

Happy Birthday!:thumbsup:

Welcome from the central coast of Cal.

Some people should never be allowed to work on cars. But...I've done stupid stuff too. Then I learned. Its still a learning process everyday.

I added a pair to my road bag. Have an a/t, but still a great idea.

Also, check your front wheel bearings. Had that once on my 94 truck.

Nice score! Fresh tires, change all the fluids, flush the brake system along with inspection, tune up, fuel and air filter then drive that baby.

So, the 63 is a wagon? Nice. I have the GV on my do list down the road for my 67 wagon. 440 power already, not original though.

The bushings don't look mushroomed. May not be a bad idea to r&r as a just because. The strut rod bushings will give you clunking noises as will the shocks. Shocks could have bad bushings and/or be loose. If you elect to replace the lower arm bushings, do the struts too as you have to undo them...

Tools, oil, water, fuel filter, jack, gloves, moving blanket to flop on if you have to play in the dirt or large piece of cardboard for same, v-belts or their sleeves for quick sourcing if needed, fire extinguisher, flashlight.
