  1. Hmm, well having the rubber and poly switched was pretty dumb of me. How much worse is it to have all rubber vs poly up front/ rubber on the back? This is a street only car
  2. I have a 280z that I recently finished building. On the tension rods I installed brand new bushings. Rubber on the front side and poly on the back, as I believe was recommended by several people here. Torqued the nut to 40ftlbs. I was just under the car for something else and noticed that the rear bushings on both sides are split very badly. This is after only about 10 miles of driving. Wondering how this could be. I will switch the rear bushings to rubber but still want to know how this could have happened. Comments welcome
  3. Looking for any 240/260/280 fuel gauge in almost any condition. Just need it to light up. The cheaper the better
  4. The door fits perfectly in the opening, it's just the overlap of the two weatherstrips that is causing the issue
  5. Car is a 1976 280z. I just installed my quarter windows and I'm having a bit of interference with the weatherstrip on the top of the door and the vertical weatherstrip on the front of the quarter window. All the weatherstripping is brand new from Precision. How did this work from the factory? Was there interference? Looks like I should probably trim the quarter window weatherstrip back to provide clearance for the door weatherstrip. Any other thoughts?
  6. @Invincibleextremes Vlad, your video showing how to swap the axles into the Mustang GT cv is down. Could you please put it back up? I ran into an issue and need to reassemble one of my axles. Or if it's deleted would you be willing to make another step by step video of the process? Also, just to clarify, the CVs need to be from 2015-2017 GT v8 cars or 2018 and newer GT v8 automatic transmission cars and can be either side? Thank you
  7. Thanks Miles. I do have that book, I will check it out and I'll install the window frame before adjusting the glass again
  8. I am putting the glass back in my 1976 280z after a restoration. I have the front and rear windshields installed and now I am starting with the driver's glass. I am able to get the glass inside the door and all the guides installed with the wheels in the channels. The 2 glass door bumpers are also installed. The glass seems to roll up and down reasonably. I do not have the window frame installed yet. Where I am getting hung up is that when I roll the window all the way down so the bottom of the door glass frame touches the rubber bumper at the bottom of the door and then start to roll back up, the rearward roller jumps out of the back of the track that is on the door glass frame. Edit: I cannot prevent the pictures from being upside down. Weird. Window rolled all the way down Starting to roll back up Roller jumped out of track Door glass I have tried adjusting the front glass guide and the rear regulator guide bolts that are on the inner door frame but other than trying to adjust the entire glass rearwards I'm not sure what to do. I was thinking that perhaps I need to install the window frame but didn't think that would help with the issue at the bottom of travel. Please let me know your comments.
  9. Thanks jhm, I appreciate it
  10. I am running into a slight problem with my Kia weatherstripping in the hatch. The spot where the weatherstripping runs over the hatch lift mounts is too tight and forces the weatherstrip to sit higher in that area. This is making my hatch not close correctly. I could either: 1) grind down the removable part of the mount. This might not even totally fix the problem as the non removable part may also be interfering 2) cut away the lower portion of the weatherstrip. This should alleviate the fitment issue but that small (~2") length would not be attached to the body. Has anyone else had this issue?
  11. @Sam Henao, what's the status with Android phones? Will this be fully supported on any Android phones in the future?
  12. Thanks Clark. Not sure how the rear toe can be set from the front spindles or rotors since my front toe is not set either. Usually the front is set off the rear. A real catch-22 if you need to set both the front and rear. I think the only way is from the centerline of the car.
  13. @jhm, the key was doing it on the car. With the hatch off the car, I don't think it would have been possible. I did use the Cal style gaskets and I am happy with how they worked
  14. Thanks for your comments, I did end up getting it to seat after a long battle.
