    Converting to '68 style windshield gasket

    And after looking at the pictures it was the top I had to shorten where it goes under the overlap. I just used a Dremel cut off wheel and filed the burrs so it slid together nicely, can't see it anyway.

    Converting to '68 style windshield gasket

    I found trim in nice condition at a swap meet, but the side pieces were about 2 inches too short. I had to shorten either the top or bottom, I can't remember which. I bought it for $100 and installed it even though I have the gap on the sides at the top. It's not perfect but I will fill in...

    Pinion angle for a street cruiser

    Thank you HemiDenny. Can you confirm what you mean by "differential angled DOWN". Does that mean the pinion center line is higher at the front or back? I think that's something that confused me on other posts I read. Is it accurate to say that in your example, it's a continuous down hill...

    Pinion angle for a street cruiser

    I'm not belittling the wealth of information available from the experienced mechanics on this site related to pinion angle, but I found it to be a little overwhelming. Admittedly, I was confused by some of it and I set up my pinion angle on an 8-3/4 swap wrong on the first try. After...
