this is going back to me raising the front end of the coronet and screwing it up and pulled a popeye on the pivot shafts stripping the threads on both sides. duh-no manual. check past thread.
.
a good bud drops over who has been a wrench his whole life and put some years in a mopar dealership. he takes a look at my situation and has a bit of laugh at me and then comes up with this short term fix. he explains what i have done, still with a grin and says to, Spot Weld the nuts to the shaft. it will keep me mobile for now and this winter when i convert over to discs on the front, fix it all at once. needless to say he had me scratching my head and if it had of been anybody but him saying it i would of wrote it off.
.
at this point i had nothing to loose so i get out the mig and zip-zip, done. put the front end up 1.5 inches using the right bolts and a test drive was done. felt alright. i am now a couple of hundred miles from home for a family doo and feeling safe from the intersate hi-way drive. photo's when i get home tuesday.:eusa_think:
