does anyone know where I can find info on changing front wing window seals? the only way I can see to change seal is to drill out the rivet on hinge that just don't seem right ? thanks for any info...tony

thats the same part #i dont think there anyway to make it work i have the ribbed set also and i dont think it would work on them either... guess ill have to put them on with the cracked and shrank orig ones :[

does anyone know where i can find new seals ? the ones from mac wont work on the foxcraft skirts

is there any adjustment on a 49 ford 4 door ? i have a wide gap between the doors and the front doors stick out at the bottom and it looks like the strikers need to be moved in but they dont seem to have any adjustment . the car hasent been wrecked and doesent look to ever been apart

that new clutch kit from fort wayne solved my problem . it works great now thanks again for the advice... tony

i got the new kit today and the presher plate doesent have adjusting bolts at the throw out bearing like the other one had. does that mean just bolt it up and go with it?

i ordered a new clutch kit from fort wayne , ill let you know how it goes... had the flywheel surfaced again , do i need to adjust any on the pressure plate or can i just put it back togather? thanks again for the help and advice... ill let you know how it turns out

i took the flywheel , pp , clutch to the machine shop that surfaced the flywheel so they can look it over and see about adjusting the pressure plate . it really wouldnt bother me to buy a 2nd clutch kit and throw away the 200 + dollar kit with zero miles on it if i knew for sure that would fix...

those adjusting screws on the p p are all turned out a little bit. the other new ones ive looked at looks like they are in all the way but its hard to tell in the pics i dont know whether to buy just a clutch or the whole kit . i would hate to buy just the clutch and have the same problem. wish...

i took the clutch out today and it looks good and everything was tight i looked at fort waynes kit and it looks the same as what i have im not really sure what to do . i dont think you could put the clutch in backwards, it wont fit into the flywheel. any sugestions ? thanks tony

im gonna try and get it apart today but i dont really know what im looking for. i guess if everything look ok i will order another a new clutch kit from ft wayne

i seen the new pressure plate had bolts that adjust where the throw out bearings ride i dont think my old one had these . my old parts were still good but thought i would put in new parts while it was apart. mistake... i havent tried burning it in . it shook so bat i didnt want to run it

motor and trans mounts are new

thats what i thought too, the pedal feels good... i dont remember the brand but it came from shoebox central

i put in new clutch , pressure plate , throw out bearing , pilot bearing. and had the flywheel surfaced . when you let out the clutch it shakes the whole car terrible... no funny noises and the pedal feel good it has new motor and trans mount and everything is tight and its not lowered ...
