I would definitely repair that since it will chew up the bushing.

Check the copper horn ring to see if the ring has a bridge between the two sections.

The hole itself is 1-3/8" in diameter. Mine has a a radius on the leading edge of the hole of 3/16", but I am not sure whether that is typical or not. My brackets look really good...

Here are a couple photos showing what I think is galvanized. You can see the rail is in really good shape, but I still had rust in the typical spot on the floor pan that I am fixing. The shiny areas are where I ground down the spot welds and right next to it is the dull look of galvanization...

Did you happen to notice the same thing on the floor supports? Mine is a 73 and I have found the same thing - inner and outer rockers are galvanized. I should take a picture and upload it. Paint doesn’t stick very well where you step at the door sill. Seems a little nastier than just regular...

Hi Everyone, While I tear into the sheet metal work on my ride, I have found that the rocker panels and the floor support rails both seem to be coated with something - are these areas possibly galvanized? Seems like it produces that white, wispy smoke that is common of galvanization, but it...

I'm really glad to hear that you are doing better. I have had friends who have gotten MRSA and it really gave them a new perspective on life. I guess I will be the first to say - I'd be interested in learning more about the details, gory or not. It's an important lesson for everyone because...

super cool.

Looks like the speedgems setup adds a ton of rotating mass to the converter.

You just order their generic housing and put in all the specs you want. Will allow you to customize brakes or whatever you want. My guess is this is where WH gets their housings from.

Suggest that you also look at Quick Performance axle in addition to the one at WildHorses.

Get rid of the adjustable fuel pressure regulator and go buy a genuine Ford regulator. The adjustable ones are not necessary. They are actually a problem if you don't set them correctly, and they cannot be adjusted to anything but a factory setting unless you can also adjust the tune accordingly.
