    Upper control arm cam adjustment.

    I need to get rid of too much negative camber that I’ve gotten after installing new lower ball joints. Do I want the suspension off load to adjust them... wheels in the air?

    Drum brake job beating the hell out of me.

    I think my main problem is I should have tossed everything that Jim’s auto parts sent me. I have the adjuster screwed all the way in and the brake shoe diameter measures 9.999.

    Removing front wheel cylinders.

    I’m doing the front brakes on my ‘68 Satellite with the 10” drums. I did this years ago on my Charger that has the 11” drums in the front but... anyone use a special wrench to get the two 1/2” bolts out? There isn’t much room, and the best I could get on it is an open end 1/2” wrench at an...
