Confusion on Pertronix

Posted on December 20, 2015 at 12:00pm 8 Comments

I know there's been a lot of discussion on the Pertronix upgrade install and benefits, but I've never converted off of points and still have a few questions.

Lower Front End Ball Joints

Posted by Logan Robb on May 11, 2023 at 9:04am 7 Comments

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.
