Hello Group
Has any one had a slight front end wheel shake at 40 to 45 mph? I had this before I resto mod my 64 Cadillac w/ a LS-3 & 4L65E transmission . We took the body off the frame and disassembled, sand blasted and painted the frame. I replaced ALL bushings and even put in new rear trailing arms. I have Kelsey Wire wheels on the car and many say that could be the issue. I went out and bought a set of steel wheels and new radial tires to eliminate and confusion. I still have this shake. Some time it is worst than others. Shocks are 2-years old and are a basic shocks.
Any help greatly appreciated
Thanks
Dominic

Do you think back brake drums could do this. I did put disc brakes on the front and left the back with the drums. I had this issue before I modiflied the car. How do you tell if your drums are out of balance?

I put all new parts in the front end when they disassemble the frame. As I mention this was happening before I did the over haul. Yes they put the proportioning valve along with a new MC. It happens 40 to 45 mph and not all the time. I leaning toward a better pair of shocks. I have a friend with the same issue but he does not have everything new........maybe its Buffalo?? lol

I could use some confirmation. I sent out my radiator for my 63 De Ville to get re-cored. Several weeks later, when I went to pick it up from the service vendor, I noticed a large amount of green…Continue

While checking my Carter carb with engine running, I took the air cleaner off and there was a very loud hissing sound of air. I placed a piece of paper over the carb and it didn’t move up or down, is this normal?

Hey everyone, has anybody done a Vintage Air AC/Heat setup in their car? I want to bypass the old vacuum setup and go with a Vintage Air Gen 2 model. Before I get started, does anyone have any experience with this? (Which model to go with, do’s and dont’s, etc.) It looks pretty involved. Any and all info/pics would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Who rebuilds original AC accumulator dryers for 1964 Cadillac? I have been on Classic auto air in Tampa FL wait list for over a year , There is one on Old air products web site that looks very similar to the original # 21-4214A but states it fits 1962 Gm cars, The one recommended for a 1964 Cadillac is half the length 21-4215A What is everyone using ? I would prefer to be as original as possible. Thanks

My son, unbeknownst to me, had all three of the horns on our 1963 Eldorado completely restored. We had recently added the Eldorado trumpet horn to the two standard horns and the sound was not very good... we had heard good ones so we knew something was not right... but there was not much we could do to get better sound from the 3 horns.
There is a restoration service called The Horn Works who my son…
