  1. Have a bit of an issue with the steering wheel and an annoying rattle/wobble on my 1974 2002. Everything seems tight around the steering box and coupler. The rattle is forward in the cabin on the column. Doesn’t seem like a steering box issue as the actual steering isn’t loose. Took a quick video, if anyone has any ideas on how to correct this or is it just what it is? Is there a bushing that’s missing or worn out? Any help is appreciated. Thanks. IMG_0182.MOV
  2. Hello. I have a 1974 base 2002 and looking for a Euro or shorty style rear bumper with no over riders or license plate lights (have the US lights). Can be new or used (decent condition). My 74' is an early style (passenger side exhaust exit), not sure if that matters. If you have one, I'm interested. Thanks.
  3. @CoastalCrush Love the stance and thanks. Probably be a 2021 project, but GC coilovers seem like the way. What size and spec are your wheels and how much fender rolling did you do?
  4. Appreciate the feedback and info. Will reach out to Ground Control to talk about the needs and application. I think the conversion would work for what I’m looking for. Thanks all.
  5. Been looking to update my suspension and read about coilover conversions/sleeves but not sure if they are a decent substitute for a full coilover system. Understood that they cost a lot less, but how are they with street driving? Has anyone installed the Ground Control conversion and how was the install? Welding necessary? Thanks.
  6. There was definitely some grease that wasn’t doing it’s job. Cleaned and regreased and is a bit better. Will see how it fares over time. Thanks all.
  7. Reaching out to see if anyone has had this problem before. My new 2002’s driver’s side window is very difficult to roll up the first 2/3 of the way. Rolling down is a breeze however. My question is if this is an adjustment issue or a bad part like a regulator. I did lubricate areas that I could but didn’t help much. Feels like binding or maybe too much pressure against the b pillar of the vent window? Thanks.
  8. Looking for a set of E21 Recaro seats in black. Can be vinyl or leather. Preferably in good to great condition (no rips, tears, deep cracks, etc). Or other condition and color if price is good. Much appreciated. Thanks.
  9. I haven’t removed it yet, but was thinking it may be smooth sheet metal underneath to glue to. But sounds like that’s not the case. Fabbing a full panel is an option but would probably prove pretty challenging. Thanks.
  10. I’m needing to replace my headliner and wondering if anyone has glued a suede material directly to the panels instead of the stock method of using the cross bars. Mine is a non-sunroof car. And I assume, no matter what you do, all glass needs to be out? Thanks.
  11. Finally got them out, but had to take the windows out to get good enough leverage with the pry tool. They were stuck in there good . The rubber was dried out anyway, so a good excuse to re-gasket, I guess. Or maybe for a full respray. Thanks.
  12. Thanks. I bought a pretty comprehensive trim tool kit, so will recruit more of those for the job. Just wanted to make sure I wasn't forcing when I shouldn't.
  13. Thanks. I’ll try and give a pull from the top. Doesn’t feel like it even wants to move at all, so fingers crossed the panel doesn’t break. Thanks.
  14. Trying get my rear interior panels out without destroying them. Have the rear seats out and I believe all of the clips are out, but it isn’t budging at all. Giving it a little light persuasion from the bottom of the panel, but it’s not showing any signs. Are there clips anywhere else or a trick to removing them? Could be that the top of the trip is seized, but I was going to avoid pulling out the pop out windows and gaskets to pry it out. Thanks.
  15. Interested in the springs. Any idea how much these are lowered from stock? Thanks.
  16. Do you still have sets left? Interested in a pair. Thanks.
  17. Has any work or rebuild been done to it after you picked it up? Do you know how many miles are on it? Thanks.
  18. Thanks for the help. Have the service manuals but didn’t think about the parts book. Great idea and I’ll also check out realoem as well. Thank you. Paul
  19. Wondering if anyone knew what the bolt size is for the flywheel cover. Just picked up a 74’ 2002 and it’s missing the flywheel cover and the bolts. Looks like there are 3 bolts need to hold it on. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
