There is a S. Calif. Tiger owner who has been prominent in CAT, but who shall remain nameless here for obvious reasons. The story, as related to me, occurred about twenty years ago. At that time he

This is exactly why I recommend replacing those 7/16" studs with 1/2". As for an easy way to replace them, the usual procedure is to pull the hub - which can be tough if they haven't been pulled rec

The correct position for the Dale A. rear disk brake calipers is forward of the axle. Let's see, that's 9 o'clock of the LR and 3 o'clock on the RR; unless you're under the car and then it's reverse

I take it you already have this square-corner hood. If it is nicely finished and fits well (as far as you can tell at this point) I'd definitely keep it. An older hood also has the advantage that th

Not having done this myself, I'm not sure of the best way to proceed to guarantee having the axle shaft spacer in the middle. But, it involves both the axle and the housing; e.g., if both the axle an
