    Yoke removal help

    I tried to use pliers on it before I drilled it to no avail. If there was play in it, it wasn't noticeable. What kills me is that I used to be a machine assembler so I'm not new to broken bolts but this one has been a real PIA. I used extractor bits but wasn't able to get one to bite. I will...

    Yoke removal help

    The bolt broke while I was driving. I left the house to go for a little Sunday cruise and heard a loud popping as I accelerated and immediately turned around. Before I could get back to the house I heard a loud bang and clatter, pulled over and the driveshaft was on the ground. What happened was...

    The bolt is sheared below the surface of the threaded hole so it is hard to get anything in there. I am trying to avoid damaging the threads because I think re-tapping the hole will difficult in itself. At this point if I can get the yoke off and just replace it for under 200 bucks then I'd be...

    **UPDATE** Ended up checking the fuse panel and saw that the fuse had popped. Replaced the fuse and as soon as the brake pedal was hit the fuse popped again. Traced the wires to the back of the car and found a few that the plastic coating had deteriorated and was shorting out on the body of...

    Good buy?

    Its definitely not from an A body but I was planning on getting it shortened and re-positioning the spring perches. Does it look like a good candidate for that? Does anyone know what the ball park price would be to have that done?

    Rear Brakes Questions/Options

    The shoes are 2 1/2" wide. I'm thinking it was probably converted. My guess is from the same car the front disc conversion was taken from. Probably why most of the hardware is wrong. I appreciate the offer and it would be nice to have a backup in case something happens but you're pretty far...

    Rear Brakes Questions/Options

    I'm sure this topic has been covered but I couldn't find any definitive answers from my searches. I have a '64 Dodge Dart GT. The front brakes have been converted to what I was told was a 73+ BBP conversion. I am in the process of refreshing the rear drums. I believe they are 10" judging from...
