Really, Fred ? $1000 in 1991 ? I've seen your service pit, and it looks very effective to me. I might go for some minor modifications, similar to a muffler shop near me, with a steel plate on one si

Right. Without the wheels on the ground, the engine has more inertia, so when the OD engages, the output speeds up instead of the input slowing down. Randall == This list supported in part by The Vi

Could be. I once stopped a leak between the OD body & adapter plate by thoroughly cleaning and buttering the joint with black RTV. Looked terrible, but got me to Breckenridge and almost home. Randal

If it's like the one I got from TRF several years ago, there is a slip of paper packed with it that advises to keep the chrome waxed. They aren't kidding, it will rust without the wax. Randall == Th

The negative lead needs to go to the case of the starter. Otherwise that's correct (except I'd use a clip lead rather than a screwdriver <g>). Randall == This list supported in part by The Vintage T

Look carefully at the 'spider' in the middle, there may be a plug that has to be removed to grease them. IMO there's no such thing. "Lifetime lubricated" U-joints have their lifetime defined as how

Nothing wrong with the Vredesteins ... but if cost is an object, you might want to consider Kumho's from Tire Rack for $30/each. http://makeashorterlink.com/?R2D034B1E (or if that doesn't work, go t

While not required, relays are an improvement even with 55/60 watt bulbs, IMO. As I recall, those are the smallest H4 halogens available, but are still somewhat more power than the original bulbs. T
