    8 3/4 End play adjuster lock tab

    I noticed what I thought was excessive end play in my 8 3/4 rear, and noticed that this lock tab appears to be bent, maybe allowing the lock nut to loosen. Anyone know what they are supposed to look like? Is this one twisted? If so, any advice to keep this from happening again...

    School me on master cylinders

    So I have a 71 with factory power disc / drum that I recently upgraded to Wilwood four-piston calipers up front. Works OK and all - but still use lots of pedal pressure and not getting much 'stop'. Wilwood tells me it should be fine - and I am going to get an adjustable prop valve - but I'm...

    Auction result: $935,000 Slant Six

    No joke. One of a kind Exner concept car. Too bad they didn't put it into production. The XNR, named for the design chief himself, was built on a modified 106.5-inch Valiant chassis, with a dramatic, asymmetrical shape that polarized onlookers. A large, offset hood scoop led to an extended...

    1971 Disc Spindle Mixup?

    Hi all, I have a 1971 GTX with factory front disc brakes. I am currently doing a conversion to Wilwood calipers / disc and hub setup. It does use the factory disc spindle - but I think I am losing my mind a bit because I cant remember if the factory setup had the caliper in the forward...

    727 wiring harness connections

    I'm reworking my wiring harness on a 1971 auto trans GTX and found that my trans connection had another wire that wasn't connected to anything. Looks like from a wiring diagram that two of the 3 wires from the trans harness connect to the bulkhead connector. There is a third one that...
