I had the same thought, but based on the parts book, 63-65 all used the same hub & drum assembly. Learn something new everyday.

Got it.

I used 3 or 4 screws & nuts and then taped the seam between the metal and the new masonite. Also added a thin layer of foam to help smooth out that seam.

On my '65, the handle releases the latch on the outer track & also pulls a wire that runs across and releases the latch on the inner track. There is a flat metal hook that pulls on the middle of the wire to keep it under tension & it attaches to the seat frame with a J bolt to allow adjustment...

Looks good. How did you detach the vinyl from the metal top piece?

The factory rear bearings are tapered rollers same as the front wheels. On the front wheel, you have an inner and outer bearing on each side and tightening the spindle nut pushes them together. Too tight and there is too much friction, too loose and things are wobbly. On the rear there is...

The outer bearing race is not seating tightly, so I'm looking to replace a front hub on my '65 Chrysler 300. I would prefer a hub that is already separated from the brake drum as I assume shipping will be much cheaper but will certainly consider one with a drum that is in good shape. I would...

I arrived safely at home last evening & hope everyone else who was headed back did likewise. Did have to regrease & adjust a front wheel bearing before leaving South Bend. Thanks again to @david hill for the assistance. That finishes up a 4 week stretch where I drove the '65 just about 2200...

The Michigan/Ohio crew just finished lunch in Sturgis and is about to head West.

1" cut off wheels and a Dremel tool work to make the access holes as well. While I do agree that the springs should be treated with caution, my experience is that with the regulator and the glass in place in the car, things don't move much. The spring wants to push up, gravity wants to pull...

I knew the general location immediately, but took a few minutes to narrow down the exact bridge.

I suspect that the 2 door New Yorkers use the same weatherstripping as the 4 door hardtops.

Unfortunately, the FSM is clear as mud on this. With the selector lever in Neutral, "Gently pull outward on the cable housing to its limit of travel, release and then tighten the clamp bolt to 10 inch-pounds torque." I assume when the cable, the transmission and the internal spring were new...

Just to verify, since we have folks in 2 time zones, that is 1 pm Eastern Daylight Time, correct?

Thank you again for hosting the event. I had a great time. Here's some more pictures.

Been here since about 9:30 am. Weather has been fine except for a pretty good shower about 3:00, but it seems to be done. Quite a few big Mopars this year.

They work. They don't park properly, but they do work

I'm hoping to make it over, but the weather is looking a little sketchy all weekend.
