I have read I need a 49 9/16" driveshaft for my '69 with 350/Turbo 350 and 12 bolt.A friend has one 49" and yoke just under 5". Can I use this and change the yoke to one of the 5.5" ones? Thanks

Yeah Steve, I got all that, but the spring and contact don't fit in the sleeve when you put the little grommet with the wires in it....for now I left the contact pin out, I 'm wondering if the contact is too long....

« on: September 03, 2012, 01:33:37 AM »

Had to remove the right front fender and skirt, bumper, grille,valance, etc to install A/C box....seems to me it would be easy to remove radiator support,put engine and tranny together on the floor and slide them right in, then put the sheetmetal back on.....chime right in please

Originality / Dumb questions about interior rear side panels...

« on: August 28, 2012, 12:56:38 AM »

I didn't take my '69 apart so I don't know what missing if anything. Is there anything that attached the rear panel to the car? Right now it just hangs there....are there supposed to be armrests? Hard to believe that the rear seat holds it in by itself.....

Maintenance / '69 blower fan replacement

« on: August 22, 2012, 01:13:26 AM »

Could someone tell me the simple way to replace the blower fan? My car was painted and the front end put on without the A/C box and blower fan installed. Chassis manual says pull lower fender out 6"!!!! after loosening the rear skirt bolts. Don't mind spending the time but didn't want to take the fender off unless I had to......thanks guys
