Re: "Almost Heaven" 67 - swb- Lilly
Still waiting on paint , so I just put another cab on so I could get
everything working ... So first thing I did wrong was blow up my tank by not venting it , busted a weld , gas sprays out ... second I cant get my steering right , it gets hung up wen u turn left or right and u have to jerk it back , t I thought bad column but I had a new rebuilt one , so I put it in , same thing , not the column ... Any Ideas ??? |
Re: "Almost Heaven" 67 - swb- Lilly
There are a few different possibilities for why the steering could be hanging up.
Believe it or not the centerlink can be installed backwards and you won't realize it until later when you start having interference issues and tire scrub. The other possibility is the steering box needs adjusted, it is made so that you can adjust the tightness of the gears inside, it sounds like yours is way too tight and you need to loosen it just slightly, now keep in mind that a little goes a long ways adjust it by 1/8 of a turn at a time, here is a link to a video so you can see how to do it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W5Ck4eANgII |

Re: "Almost Heaven" 67 - swb- Lilly
Looking good, did you ever get your steering issues sorted out?
|
Re: "Almost Heaven" 67 - swb- Lilly
yes , just went back to the original gear box and all problems solved ...
|
Re: "Almost Heaven" 67 - swb- Lilly
Ah man, I have an AGR box. Hope it doesn't give me trouble. I'm liking your glove box door....

Re: "Almost Heaven" 67 - swb- Lilly
Do you have a part number on those front rotors?
And WHERE DID YOU GET THAT GLOVE BOX DOOR?? |

Can not get my hood lined up everyway I move it is wrong !!!
Passenger side is up high in front and wider gap on fender , crazy ??? Will the billet hinges solve my problem ? Any advice is appreciated... |
Re: "Almost Heaven" 67 - swb- Lilly
Just found your build and subscribing. It's looking good with everything you're doing to it. As for the hood; something that long moves a long way with just a little bit of adjustment. For the side to side gap have you tried loosening one bolt (one bolt not one side) at a time on the hood to hinge bolts (not hinge to fender)? I'm sure you've done everything we're going to ask you but its hard to know since we're not there.

Re: "Almost Heaven" 67 - swb- Lilly
could even be in the core support side to side if the gap at the cowl is good... ? maybe
|
Re: "Almost Heaven" 67 - swb- Lilly
That probably the best gap you'll get on the passenger side
