    Fusible Link Info

    When I remade mine I read up on it and it said they have to be as close to original as possible. Maybe someone has a spare harness kicking around to give you the lengths. No way I can crawl under either one of my cars to take the measurements. Too much in the way do even get a jack under them.

    Core Support Black

    Back in the day I used to use Centari. I think the color was called 99 Black. Its been a lot of years so I might be wrong about the number but I had to play chemist with a flattening agent. I could never get the same result twice. Too dull, too glossy. It was a pain in the butt. The first time I...

    Core Support Black

    Ive been using it since a friend of mine told me about it. It lays out nice on top of DP primer. I did all the inners with it and Im pretty happy with the way they look.

    Core Support Black

    I used SEM Hot Rod Black on the core supports for both of my cars. I also used it on the majority of brackets, suspension parts and rears. Its a nice semi gloss 2K paint. Easy to spray and comes out pretty much the same every time I use it.

    CUTLASS fusible link

    You dont need to purchase an expensive ready made link. You can do it yourself if you have basic skills. Fusible link wire is two AWG sizes down from the wire its meant to protect. For 12AWG you would need to buy a length of 16AWG link wire. I remade the links on both of my cars. You need to...

    No start No crank

    Check the fusible links by the starter. They look like this. The fusible link is the wire. Check it for a break. Should be easy to feel. The plastic barrels are factory butt connectors.

    rear control arm bolts

    I bought all the hardware for my wagon from belmetric. That was for the front and rear suspension. I also bought the stuff for the front end of my coupe from them. When I was doing the rear suspension in the coupe I didnt know about belmetric so I hunted everywhere for hardened metric nuts and...

    rear control arm bolts

    Easy explanation. Nylock nuts go on and come off without much effort. Prevailing torque lock nuts are the exact opposite. They go on hard and come off the same way. Im pretty sure thats why car companies use them on suspensions. Theyre also hardened like the factory bolts. Makes no sense to use...
