Techniques for replacing pinion seal on differential

My 63 Park Avenue has a leak at the differential.  My accomlished, experienced, and reliable mechanic has never replaced a seal of this type. I have a pinion seal and differential gasket.  I also purchased a reprinted shop manual for 1963 Cadillacs. He is concerned about torque needed in  tightening  the pinion nut so that it was the same as before disasembly. We would greatly appreciate advice and/or  knowledge of videos,tecniques for the  successful removal, replacement of the pinion seal.See More

1963 RHS A/C kick panel - photos needed

Posted by SK on June 2, 2025 at 2:20pm 2 Comments

Could someone post front and back photos of the 1963 right-hand kick panel with A/C?

My car didn’t come with the original kick panels, so it's a bit of a mystery to me how I should cut the backing board and carpet to fit around the A/C.

Many thanks,

Edelbrock Carb Block off Plates

Posted by Chase on March 12, 2025 at 2:05pm 14 Comments

In the fall and winter months on a cold start, the car starts awful and wants to die until it warms up. I have to keep my foot on the throttle until it warms up or it will idle just terrible and try to die. Once it’s warm, it runs fantastic! Whats going on here? I was thinking of removing the…
