1963 Fleetwood door bumper sizes question for CLC forum
The CLC forum had this question:Hello to all, I am trying to replace all the door bumpers in my 63 Fleetwood 4 door. I've looked around and found there are different sizes. I was going to measure the ones that I thought were on the car but when I looked they were all gone. I have no idea what sizes belong where. I looked for diagrams and pictures online with no luck and my shop manual tells me nothing. I'm hoping someone could help me here. Thank you, George…See More

I would like to obtain a copy of the Self-Starter's article on the 429 engine series. I think it was originally published in the July 2003 edition. Does anyone have a copy to share or any ideas of how to obtain a copy?
Thank you.

very good info on the rear crank seal --leak repair
at the link below
looks like many will deal or have dealt with this issue at some time,when owning our fine cars
the 10-40 motor oil mentioned in the artical should help with a leak issue

Lower Front End Ball Joints
Posted by Logan Robb on May 11, 2023 at 9:04am 7 Comments 0 Likes
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…

Posted by CHRIS CARLSON on March 20, 2023 at 11:32pm 3 Comments 0 Likes
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
