Thanks 4x4, I cut out all the old windows and glued in some new widows, using your picture frame technique and the the HH66.- the new material seems a little thinner than the original, but much clearer. I now have some 45 year old plastic window shards for sale . Lots of sizes and shapes available L...

Thanks rmel, Interesting diagram, I got the boots on with a little help form a heat gun to soften up the boots. I followed your diagram, and I understand the idea of the screws being at 3 o'clock, so the axle doesn't bind on them, but i'm wondering why they face forward on one side and backward on t...

Thanks much,

I ordered up some of the HH66, and i'll give her a go- the testimonials on the website certainly look promising. I have a window that is cracked as well. I may try and cut the threads and ty and glue in a new one as well.

I feel a little more at ease about my shocks- I found this chart in the repair manual. I think it means that the shocks do indeed have much more force required to rebound or extend versus to contract. It makes me wonder about all those replacement shocks breaking bolts.

I'm in the midst of replacing two of my axle boots with the split boot kits ( from SAV), and running into some troubles. I got the larger end of the boot attached and hose clamped in, but the smaller end is fighting me. The original hose clamp is just not quite long enough to reach- I'm not sure if ...

I have a 710M with a seam in the rear cover that is just starting to come loose. I was hoping to repair it with some type of glue. Anyone know what exactly the original tarps (1973 in my case) are actually made of - so I can try and find the appropriate adhesive for repair . Thinking of making my ow...

Long time Lurker first time poster- What a resource!!!! I'm a long time Pinz owner -1974 710M. Drove her stock (except for black spray paint on the bumpers and new batteries )for about 5 years and then she sat for 10+ years. I decided to get her running to sell, but after I started resurrecting her ...
