Man, I am a hot rodder thats been doing this stuff for 30 years, and youre doing this exactly how hot rodders do.....just do it and figure it out. Well done my man.
Good job well done I'm doing the same job to my 71 Nova on my channel it uses a TS801 shock that is a "T" Bar mount. Look forward to see what's next on the bird......Subed
Those clip/cage nuts can be a real pain. So often they break off during disassembly and then you have a real nightmare on your hands when you can't remove the spring pocket screws. Regarding those rear leaf spring shackles. While you do want them in tight and hopefully using nylock nuts but be sure the shackles move freely as the car bounces up and down. You don't want them so tight that they bind up. Nice video series. You're going to have nice driver when you get it put together.
I appreciate the feed back, I tightened the nylon nut to where I saw about 3-4 threads on the other side. I’ll definitely revisit it to make sure its not over tightened. I still have a a few more things to do with the rear end. Keep an eye for more videos ! :)
hey bud love your videos. I just bought a 67 bird and i have multi leaf springs with traction bars and the bracket to the rear shock does not fit anymore. I bought the QA! shocks like you have. I was wondering if you can share a link where you bought the bolt's that you bought sepertly to mount the bottom shock to? Or just the nae of it? Thank you
