Re: Slowly Making Improvements to my '69 Patrol
Finally replaced the bent drag link with the one from my parts rig. http://www.60patrol.com/forum/gallery/image.php?album_id=204&image_id=3948 I didn't realize how severe the bend was until I laid them out side-by-side (forgot to snap a pic). I hadn't realized that the ability to turn the wheels...

Re: Master Cylinder Compatibility

Search here for Wilwood and you'll probably find a link. Do you have any information on exactly which model? Wha...

Re: Master Cylinder Compatibility
So lately I have found that my current master cylinder, the Ford "Fruit Jar" as you call it, has been sticking. It locks the brakes up and the only way to release them is to bleed the master. After I bleed it, it seems to operate fine for a while before it decides to seize up again. Any id...

Re: Ohm Range for Fuel Gauge
Unbelievable that you have this much data about the fuel gauge. I'm glad you saw my question because your response is extremely helpful. Thanks!faux40 wrote:Funny you should ask... I can't swear by the accuracy, but these are from my gauge.

Ohm Range for Fuel Gauge
Does anybody know the ohm range of the fuel tank sending unit? The gauge I have now, which is aftermarket, only registers full or empty with basically nothing in between. I need to get a new one that has the correct ohm range.

Patrol in State of Affairs (TV Show)
My wife was watching a new show called State of Affairs and she called me in with an excited voice. There was a nice tan patrol that got a lot of screen time so I thought I would share. http://www.nbc.com/state-of-affairs/episode-guide/season-state-of-affairs/ghosts/108 Unfortunately you have to suf...

Re: Slowly Making Improvements to my '69 Patrol
I sprayed the insides of my doors with bed liner stuff in a can and installed my door panels with new stainless steel fasteners.
