I received a shipment from speedway motors for the Simca.  The cross spring setup was causing too much problems with steering setup.

Parallel springs will be under it, Ford spindles Super Bell hubs and brakes. I bought the Super Bell  parts around 1995 or 96

what a learning curve on simple stuff.  I learned that I needed to bend the LED wire tabs a certain way to avoid breaking the solder joint on them.

I may need to buy another group of LED lites since I have broken 8 so far.  :twisted:

just finished up swapping S-10 rear end out of wife's coupe to a Nova rear.  now have to run new emergency brake cables.

had a 4L60E  pump brought in, that a customer removed all on his own.

You are suppose to remove the trans pan first... remove the filter, remove the lock up solenoid from the pump too.

Clamp on the splined tube was used for extraction from the case.  Many gouge marks from screw driver to pry pump outof case.

Second foto shows broken piece of lock up solenoid in the small hole on the left.  He broke the filter tube too that goes into the larger hole.

Still trying to find out why only this part was brought into the shop. Kinda wonder what else the guy is "fixing"  :shock:

I finished up the sign for Fatcat's store. He still has to put the letters on it, but it lights up.

Tony, I really like those lights on the bike. It's given me an idea to solve a problem I've been wrapping my head around for some time now.

I have learned this 4L60E  pump has been out 3 times as the DIY owner is trying to fix a leak.  he does not seem worried about the other parts he broke pulling the pump or the damage done to the sealing areas of the pump to trans case

 Some people don't know when to  say "when" ... :(U)

  He prolly want's it resolved for $25.00 or less with a 3/36 warranty ...correct  :?:

I heard friday that the remainder of the transmission parts are coming to the shop for a proper repair.  LOL Some folks do not know when to stop fixin stuff.

I pulled the seat out of the 32. I'm going to modify the foam and recover it. It won't scream "minivan" when I'm finished. :D
