Hi There I own a 70 300 and also know someone with a 71. Besides the usual places (rear window, rear quarters, etc) be sure to check the front subframe (stubframe) for rust issues - particularly the two rubber isolator/body mounts at each side (under car between front wheel and door). These...

Console, rimblow steering wheel (?), etc Looks like a bargain at that price...I wonder what is wrong with it?

Who knows, could be one of those hidden treasures.

Check out this link - I found it very helpful: www.allpar.com/history/mopar/front-end-alignment.html ‎

Pretty bad rust around the rear window. Wonder how the rest of her is? At least it has the console "option" as so many I've seen don't.

Sounds fine to me. This is something I'd do, given most lower hoses no longer have the spring. Stainless steel wire would be better IMO, but the gal should be fine - just check for any rust every now and then.

The FSM should have a table listing the suspension specs (camber, caster, ride height, etc). The ride height is not given as an abolute value, but as the difference between the LCA adjuster blade and the bottom of the lower ball joint with respect to ground. On a level surface, first measure...

Was it OK before you re-tensioned the belt? A belt will generally only squeal if it is either loose of misaligned. The ammeter does not display volts by the way, just the load current to and from the battery. Given all pulleys turn freely by hand I can only suggest there is a problem with the...

Column shift too.

...the existing rubber busgings by filing them out, which I found after half an hour, next to impossible. If you have to get these struts and run a sway bar, you'll have to either buy Firmfeel's sway bar kit as well or do what I did and mold your own poly busgings, which was a major pain in the...

Here's my one: 69 Monaco 500 Black ,440, HD torqueflite, console, Suregrip, A/C, and power disk brakes.

While the same angle on the left and right is correct, the direction of the said angles should be clarified. I understand about 1/16" toe-in is optimum for our cars is it not?

How's your wheel alignment?

Looks like a connector for HV tubular busbars used in many outdoor electricity substation yards. Or some very thin scaffolding...

Good articles, but a note of caution re that little bit of grease to help press in the bushings. These bushings (upper and lower control arm) must not be lubricated - the FSM also makes this clear. My story: I went through the first time nightmare of replacing the LCA bushings. One...

In my humble opinion disk brakes are superior to drums when it comes to braking performance, unless you don't count fade as a performance issue. True about the cold stopping performance of disks v drums though. That said, given about 70% of braking effort is handled by the front brakes, if I...

Never had to unbolt the trans mount when replacing my engine mounts.

I agree. Would love to see some shots under the front stub frame area as I bet the body mounts (esp dash foot pair) are shot, and from personal experience, these are a major PITA to fix.

Depending on how you're going about removing the frame, check out this link for important info not provided by the FSM: http://www.hamtramck-historical.com/images/TSBs/1970/70-23-8%20page1.jpg

No rust? I'd be interested to see a shot of the sub frame - esp the rubber isolated body mounts - as I can bet these are rusted out.
