    New Differential

    Only one photo, thought I could trust 100% feedback, won't make that mistake again. Got worried when tracking showed it almost here, and eBay still had the auction up. It's the one on the pick-up tailgate.

    New Differential

    Guess I'll be waiting a while to fix the speedo, being the eBay guy sent me a non-LSD 3.45 rather than a 3.07 LSD. Major disappointment, however eBay was very helpful so far. Now to see how the refund & return shipping label work out. Why do people try to do stupid things like this?????

    New Differential

    What I have is a '74 3.0CS with 3 Webers, a little hotter cam and a little longer stroke. I bought it that way, and it came with a complete history showing who did all the work~

    Very thankful for the two replies so far, I looked at the web-sites of both shops listed above, just wonder if anyone has any experience with either & how it went

    New Differential

    I got a 3.07 rear end to replace the 4.10 gas guzzler which is in the car now. I'm wondering how to get the speedo to work right with the new gears. I thought it would be a matter of changing speedo drive gears but after reading what I could find, I'm not so sure this is the case! If someone is...

    Rear Shock Rattle

    Well, my sub. welding friend doesn't do cars, being retired and only doing favors he feels cars can cause trouble (unforeseen issues). He did come by and look it over, and after telling me a story, suggested JB Weld. My issue with that idea is if it doesn't hold, the clean-up to get it ready to...

    Triumph

    It does look pretty, but also too long, either way my back hurts just looking at it. I owned a HD hard tail in '70 or '71 with no spring in the seat, it hurt! I do own a '64 T100SC a '74 T150 and a '76 T140 in various states of build, with the T140 being a vintage racer, really need to thin the...

    Rear Shock Rattle

    I now have one of the repair parts made up and will be contacting a Lodge Brother/neighbor who is certified for submarine welding. Thing is, he's retired and I don't know if he's flexible enough to get in the trunk!!

    Rear Shock Rattle

    Thank you Steve, I see now page numbers on the left that I missed. I guess I'm accustomed to looking on the right from the Mini forum and the Chevy forum I'm using for the engine swap. I'll be turning up a couple of these in the next few days. Right now I need to work on the Mini, got a bunch of...

    Rear Shock Rattle

    They are nice pictures & I'd be happy with 28 more years of driving gas Cars & Trucks especially because I'm just finishing up putting a 327 in my 54 Chevy pickup. Hope I find the thread with those what kinda look like flower pots in the photo above. As far as that 10 year thing goes, a...

    Rear Shock Rattle

    I have followed all the above threads & links three times, one link says it's broken, the one for Sven's repair job, so maybe you could help with that issue, or give me the link that info is in so I can read it. At 72 years of age my computer skills arn't up to modern standards, so maybe I...

    Rear Shock Rattle

    Rob: You're saying "someone should" but then you post photos that make me think someone already did! So what's the story on the parts you pictured, looks like some pretty good lathe work.

    Eric: This morning when I came to the forum there was a little red digit one on the bell next to the search, when clicked it, it told me my thread was moved to off topic and this I did not understand so I made the post you answered. Please don't think I'm impatient, I'm really anything but -...

    Rear Shock Rattle

    Don't really see how a shock tower fail in a 3.0CS is "off topic". Wonder if I'll get any more input on my question after having been put aside~

    Rear Shock Rattle

    I noticed here that the torn steel tracks exactly from spot weld to spot weld on the part in my second photo. My biggest complaint is that right now my CS coupe has become my daily driver due to the fact that my Mini had a freeze plug fall out. The plug that decided to fall out is between number...

    I have another photo as my broken tower isn't as bad as the one in the thread HB Chris has shown me.

    Rear Shock Rattle

    This morning I went in search of a noise from the right rear, it didn't take long to find the source! Hope I can post a photo, haven't been here in a while, but just in case I can't I'll try to describe my question. It seems that the shock has pushed a 3" plate that was spot welded to...
