I'm sure this has probably been covered but I searched and couldn't find anything.
Anyone got any tips on the R&R of the rear trunk lid, hinges, and torsion bars? Going to replace the rollers while I'm at it. I think I've seen some bronze ones over the years ....anyone got a source? Thanks. |

I've done a mod on the shoulder bolts. I wish I had pics. Drill down the center of the shoulder bolt and tap for grease fitting, chuck shoulder bolt and make groove to intersect, then drill small hole in the groove.
Now's a good time to make sure the welds on the pivots are good and the pivots aren't stress cracked. BTW, did you ever source an oil pipe? |
