"Glad to hear it went off without a hitch! I'm sure you'll have it back together in no time. Happy cruisin'!"
"I was able to remove the motor and both cylinders with no issues per the shop manual. With Chris's tip to put the cylinder in a vice I was able to easily remove the screws. Now onto the sandblaster to cleanup the brackets! "
"Since I skipped removing bolt #2 that's probably why I needed to adjust the top. Go with the manual's directions and hopefully you won't have trouble accessing some of the bolts like I did.
I had the top replaced back around 2007, but…"
"Chris,
I am replacing the motor, both cylinders, and all the hydraulic lines. The shop manual removal procedure has step 1: is to bring the top up and lock it to the windshield header. However, it sounds like you had to move…"
"Hi there. I did this job about 6 years ago for my convertible removing the cylinders while I was replacing the top motor. You'll definitely want to mark off each bolt so you can line everything back up when putting it back together. I…"

1963 RHS A/C kick panel - photos needed
Posted by SK on June 2, 2025 at 2:20pm 2 Comments 0 Likes

Many thanks,
