    Heater core tubes

    I should add that I did not disassemble the heater itself, just removed it and reinstalled it. I guess I didn't notice how it was prior to removal.

    Heater core tubes

    Should the two tubes on the heater core that extend thru the fire wall come straight thru the fire wall or be at an angle? Mine is at an angle. I had removed it during a frame off I am doing and also replaced the firewall insulation behind it. Everything looks tight, but the angle they are at...

    Door hinge removal

    I have removed the doors off my 71 Bronco by taking the pins out of the hinges. Can I unbolt the part of the hinge from the front door post? Is there a backing plate behind the post that is attached or will it fall down inside and cause a big project replacing it?

    Air cleaner support bracket?

    Is there a bracket that is supposed to hold the bar that extends down from the end of an air cleaner assembly? I want to use the factory assembly but my late brother-in-law put headers on the 302 and now there is no easy way to attach it. Any help? Pictures?

    FOUND!!! WATER pump pulley needed

    I have pulled pulley. No shim. its definitely a 302. 4 hole with 1/2" center hole. Is the longer nose pump only a 1/4" difference? I have looked in TBP catalogs along with several other catalogs with no success. May have to go to a auto parts store or a junkyard as you suggested.
