The cables you have are throttle from carb to gas peddle and kickdown from carb to transmission. Most factory style kickdown linkages are a 3 piece setup, which is what they are referring to.
You still need a shifter linkage for column to transmission for gear selection.
Good luck with your...
Got 295/50 15s on an 8 inch wheel on mine. Spring relocation kit moved them in 2 or 3 inches.
I've also had 29x15.5 on the back as well. Those required a little extra pressure in the air shocks to keep from rubbing.
Don't remember what back spacing is on either wheel combo.
Can't speak for others, but my problems were because of the wiring not allowing enough current from the alternator at idle. My turn signals would not blink. Lol. Once I added extra wires, the current was available for everything that needed it. My lights got and stayed brighter and my turn...
Many times, it's just a wiring issue from the alternator to battery.
As soon as I added a couple extra wires under the hood and through the firewall, my electrical issues were fixed.
Headlights are plenty bright and no dimming.
Determination. That's what fuels anything. It took several years to get our car where it is. And its still not where I want it. The car has sat in the garage many times throughout good weather because there wasn't enough money for something.
Not everybody has the privilege of writing a check to...
If that's what you want to do, do it. If you'd enjoy the car more, do it.
Personally, I like the idea of a Wile E. Coyote car. It's different. I'd say go for it. Lol
We had a 29 inch tire on it before, but they were also 15.5 inches wide. Lol
These are about 26.5 inches tall. I didn't think 2.5 inches would've made that much of a difference. It would probably look a little better if the back end was lower. The air shocks say a minimum of 25 psi. And it's at 25.
Got some new wheels and tires.
Sport Torque wheels
Mickey Thompson Sportsman S/T tires
15x8 rear with 295/50r15
15x6 front with 235/60r15
We got tired of the old combo. Wanted to have more of a street appearance.
I think I should've went with a taller tire for the rear. What is your opinions?
Finally got around to putting the roadrunner head on the grille.
But because of the combination of fat fingers and the stupid pills the doctor has me on, I dropped it.
Luckily, we had some paint. It doesn't look too bad.....
