    Headlight Retainer

    Hi I've recently tried changing out my headlights but am having the worst time ever trying to put the retainer ring on. It would always pop out when I first bought the vehicle.

    Yeah I'm looking on Craig's list like crazy! Working on the cooling problem in the mean time. Have you ever tried out the flex-a-lite belt driven fans?

    The radiator that's in there now is about 21" wide x 19" tall x 2.5" thick. Will this cool the v8? The guy I talked to said I'll go nowhere without a shroud so that's on the list.

    1971 FJ40 Chevy 350 Manual Transmission?

    Here's a few at my attempt to fix the steering :grinpimp: Overall it's A LOT better. Don't feel like I'm going to lose control and die. Not so much of a problem rather then a preference but.. There's play in the steering still. Heard maybe I need to adjust my steering box? Idk
