Default Re: Ryan Weaver's 1969 Olds Cutlass S W31 Club Coupe

I just learned how to remove the U-joints, there are tiny holes on the sides of each yoke beside each cap with small blue plastic "pins" that need to be melted out. I have only seen u-joints with circlips'

Olds guys say I need to melt these out while being careful not to get the molten splatter on myself or others, and that the replacements will somehow use circlips..... I have to see it to really understand it.

I hope to do that this Saturday.

I had really slowed myself down trying to get every part powdercoated in one shot, so I narrowed my focus (leaving some items like alternator beaker, and pulleys for a future batch) and now have the pictures for the powdercoated so he can quote. (Got stuck)
