1. Re: Clutch Disc Orientation (score: 1)

Cary--Look closely at the disc. It should be marked: "FLYWHEEL SIDE" Dick Does the flat side or the domed sided of the clutch disk face the flywheel? I can't tell from any of the online parts diagram

j.--Changing the front springs shouldn't change the camber much, if at all. Still, it's easier to do both the front springs and front shocks at the same time. Ride height can change, and a lot depend

Cary--I know of no one who has separated these hubs and shafts without a press. The bigger, the better! Unless you have access to at least a ten ton press, I'd advise taking them to an automotive mac

Mike has it right. The top bump stops must be in place to take the load from the shock when "bottoming out". It is also important that the frame cross member be clean where the new bracket attaching

All--Some tube shock conversions do not require any re-engineering during or after installation. Alto I rarely do business with VB, I found their kit to be acceptable. The bracket is designed to just

Date: Fri, 10 Mar 2006 15:36:24 -0800
Mike--I don't like the clatter produced by loose valve stem-to-rocker clearances either. However, closing up the clearances to less than the grinder recommends will produce noticeably more lope, (mor

Joe--There's a heck of a lot I don't about this, but I'll share what I think I know. Engines with hydraulic lifters have NO clearance between the valve stem and rocker. The takeup is automatic as wea

Bud--It's a standard right handed thread. If the crank wants to turn as you loosen or tighten the bolt, hand on to the fan extension with a pipe wrench. Use an aluminum wrench if you're fussy about m

Bob--I have found that even with snug fitting cam followers, rockers and shaft and stem to guide clearances, too much lash produces clatter. Maybe better description for this sound would be like hear

Al--If you find another blown carb diaphragm, the problem is likely from backfiring in the exhaust. The cause is usually ignition related. Sometimes this can even separate the seams in the muffler. D

Aaron--The free dirt in the ziplock bag wouldn't bother me much as the feeling that the bearing "makes some noise". It positively shouldn't. I'd first call Dave at TRF and let him know what you've fo

Andrew--I'll take a stab at this one. I'd first stay around the area of what changes might have occured as a result of the new parts. Check to see if an outer valve spring has broken. At low rpm the

John--The Lincoln or a Miller are good welders. Get a 220V if your shop is wired for it, but a 120V is OK for the thinner metals for the body skin. If you have the need for more than this one repair,

Bruce--I missed the part about the "long throw SC in your original post, until I read Vance's reply. It seems the early TR six had a larger bore (.075) in the Master cylinder. This meant the SC pushr
