    Drum removal on 69 Jeepster Commando

    Okay, so what I found was the nut had nothing to do with it. There was a small lip the size of the drum face that was about 6" around. It was a tight fit. I beat the shit out of the drum until I had blisters on my hand. I tried using an air hammer, penetrating oil, etc... I finally got it to...

    Drum removal on 69 Jeepster Commando

    Can't bleed for pedal. It leaks. You are saying to remove the axle nut and washer, put back on loosely and put the pin in and drive it slowly? Sorry, but it isn't very clear. So I use the weight of the vehicle to loosen the bearing assembly since the nut is loose? I've done that with lug nuts on...

    Drum removal on 69 Jeepster Commando

    Not that style. Big bearing nut holding the drum on. Tried a slide hammer and could't get it. Didn't see you at Mopars in the Park. Did you go? My car broke like it does every time i drive it to MIP. Hasn't been on the road since.

    Drum removal on 69 Jeepster Commando

    A friend has his Jeep in my detail shop. It needs wheel cylinders - no brake pedal and leaking. I want it out of my shop, but he can't get the drums off. Anyone know the trick to get rear brake drums off a 1969 Jeep Jeepster Commando? I need the space and will do it for him just to clear my shop.

    The PO of my Ramcharger was supposed to be a mechanic. Yeah right!

    Hell, I didn't. It didn't matter though, since it was already glued on. I'll remember if I find a new one, though!

    Only on one side of it.

    If I'm getting water on the horn button, I'm already in a world of hurt.

    Apparently I can glue it on with clear silicone caulk and it will hold until the next time I take it off.

    I don't have a close up right now, but can get one if needed. Here's what I've got.

    That's the 83 center console. It's bigger than my first apartment. I need some of the interior light lenses and a rear view mirror with no crazing. And apparently a horn button.

    The PO of my Ramcharger was supposed to be a mechanic. Yeah right!

    When I first bought this truck, the power windows didn't work. I took the window motors out and replaced the gears. There were wood screws, lag bolts and machine screws holding it in. I riveted it all back in like it was supposed to be. Today I am changing the turn signal switch because the...

    Taillight / brake light problems. Any wiring diagrams out there?

    I didn't take the wire off yet. I had to drive it to Mopars in the Park the next morning and I was running out of daylight. When I started I thought I just had a bulb or two out. The turn signal cancel cams are out, and they come on a new switch. I'll check power back there, but maybe that's all...

    Taillight / brake light problems. Any wiring diagrams out there?

    My brother told me my right tail and turn weren't working. I checked and they were. I noticed I didn't have brake lights on the right side. Then I found out what an idiot the previous owner was. There is a wire scotch locked to the yellow wire in the right rear. It runs all the way through the...

    Greg's Ramcharger And Dart

    1983 Ramcharger 2WD bought from original owner's daughter after he died. 318 / 727 with 97,000 miles. The PO installed aftermarket A/C that works really well. Red on red with hunter's plaid interior. I'm building a 440 for it and plan on lowering it after that. Right now I put on a Performer...

    1987 dodge d150 4x4 hemi 5.7

    He bolted it on and away he went. :-) Actually, he bought the transmission from a local junkyard that does only Viper parts. I don't know what he did for the hydraulics. He was running an automatic and cut the hole for the shifter. The shifter arm gave him a little trouble because I guess it's a...
