71 Duster 360 (new project)

after a couple of days...I fought with those lip seals again today...but in the end I whipped them...I have two bad thumbs and have a hard time pressing down on the pistons...

got the twenty four spring kit installed in the front drum...

the tool is the factory tool for compressing the drum...bought it off ebay several years ago...

one picture I had the retainer for the big single wound spring in there...it is not used with the multispring kit...could not remember...but figured it out since..it would not all fit..and I wonder why I had several of the retainers in a box (left overs).

got the servos installed...waiting on the 5.0 kickdown lever......and i have to replace the bushing in the drum...and pump...along with the new pump gears...

of course..the old TA cheetah valve body goes in....the serial number on it shows that is was build back in 1983....bought it new for $69.95 back then....
