i dont think i would try to start it, it would wipe the cam out almost imediatly, maybe prime the oil pump but still risky.

Charley
I see you posted a pic of the one rear spiral shock.
Can you catch the other rear part number,sticker & date as well?
And if at all possible,can you relay the Front spiral shock numbers,broadcast stickers and dates from both sides too?..Pics aren't really necessary,but appreciated as I know how difficult it can be to get in these areas,especially the fronts.

I'm curious to see how close all four of these actually do match up.
Thank You..

I don't see any drum retaining spring type clips. Were they not in use at that time? I used to rip them off with side cutters and toss them. Great pics Charlie! Keep them coming.

No it had no clips. Had a cobweb that I thought was a clip though. It will be a bit before I get near the other shocks.

clip on pass side head to hold temp sending unit wire.

cloth tape on wire

same wire goes up and loops over the TCS wire harness. If I were putting this car back together I would not have looped it over. Might mean nothing but just the kind of crap I like. Also notice the pink lettering on the trans.

nut that holds TCS solenoid looks like it was never tightened.

Notice how different the plating color is between the bracket and the booster

**Charley Lillard** · #**520** 02-09-2009, 05:07 AM

also on this bracket...also notice there is "NO" pipe dope or teflon tape on any of the fittings.
