    Steering wheel wants to turn right while idling, steering gear adustment or front-end alignment?

    Idler arms are a pain in the butt. All these rubber bushed arm have some play in them going down the road. That's a bad thing, we don't want that. New 1964 New Yorker arms are slim pickens. So, I've been rebushing the frame mount swing end with new rubber kits. But that doesn't always make an...

    What is the function of this spring in a bucket seat

    I don't know... It's worth a look. @jet1969 You can get a copy of the parts manual at MyMopar No '71 service manual though.

    69 polara trunk mat

    I have to correct myself... My 300L does have a vinyl edging and I think it was replaced somewhere along the line, but not really sure. This car was equipped with the trunk dress up. Linkage for auto-pilot is sitting there (gotta try to get that hooked up) and the rear mounted power antenna.

    What is the function of this spring in a bucket seat

    The appropriate model year Chrysler Parts Manual probably has an exploded view of the seat items, too. CBODY67

    69 polara trunk mat

    When I bought the Monaco, it was in 1975 and it was used with about 83K miles on it. Totally "normal" and unmolested. Having been bought new by a higher-line female department store employee and then owned by her daughter for a few years. It did have a trailer hitch in its earlier years, but...

    I use Joe Gibbs Driven 5W-30 oil that I buy from Hughes Engines. Has done well through 3 years of use in a rebuilt 440, 9.2:1 compression. Street use, not driven in winters

    What is the function of this spring in a bucket seat

    From my '70 FSM (I don't have a digital '71). This should be close enough, but look in your '71 Factory Service Manual for more.

    69 polara trunk mat

    Do you think there were side panels at some time? The trunk dress up packages I've seen always have black cardboard. I'll have to take a pic of my 300L.

    69 polara trunk mat

    Mine has a plastic like backing on it like other auto carpet, but not quite as nice as most, but still that same backing. This is why I specify "auto carpet". I took a pic of the backing. I found a plain vinyl one for an RV or Jeep. Another eBay deal. Then I cut a round piece of plywood to...

    What is the function of this spring in a bucket seat

    Looks like it might be a mis-placed/hidden rh seat recliner spring mechanism? The actual recliner pivot mechanism would be at the base of the seat back, with the spring mechanism giving it the motion so it didn't flop backward uncontrollably when the recliner was adjusted. Obviously, it's...

    Bastardized 1959 "Coronet" build

    C pillars repaired. Rain gutters are going to stay and get extended onto the Corvette Targa top. Lexan goes in tomorrow (assuming I can cut it without screwing it up LOL)... Rear "glass" trim will go back on. I REALLY like it! Top and bottom trim. no problem... Side/upper corner, problem as...

    69 polara trunk mat

    The OEM trunk carpet in my Monaco did have serging all around it, factory. Looked really nice, carpet and serge were black. As was the spare tire cover. No cardboard side panels. No vinyl spray backing on the carpet, either. I looked the other night, (seems like it was REM?) and found...

    What is the function of this spring in a bucket seat

    What is the function of this cylinder with a spring in it, in the bucket seat on the passengers site of an imperial 1971 2 door. It has a lever, when you pull it apparently nothing happens? Can somebody enlighten me?
