Spare tire question
Is it possible to mount a narrower radial tire on the spare tire rim?
I no longer want the spare tire to use up trunk space so the idea is to put it back in its original place (under the package tray). 235/75/15 radials however are too fat to fit in this space.
My car is a ‘63 SdV.

I would take the car to a tire shop and see if they have any used tires to try out.

I bought an original bias ply from Coker. Looks original and fits in the slot of my CDV. I know it can only be used short term as a spare on the ground if needed but it fits and it looks original in the truck !

Lower Front End Ball Joints

Good Morning all!
I took the 64 into the shop to have some adjustments completed and in the process decided to have the lower ball joints replaced as was recommended the last time I had it in. I ordered the parts and came into the shop. They quoted me nearly $500 to replace those lower ball joints requiring nearly 4hrs of labor. Now this is a reputable shop and they know me by name here and they will continue to get my business. I am just questioning what on earth is…

I'm having my steering sector rebuilt, and considering changing it from 20-1 ratio 4.2 turns lock to lock to 3.5 turns lock to lock @ 16-1 ratio, If i change from a 3 1/4" box to a 3" box i could have a 14-1 Ratio steering response would be faster, shorter distance to turn the wheel to get a response, has anyone done this? and how do you like it? thank you
