had two tranny covers to make one .... nice

cant answer on the rear barn doors... I always thought they were the same bolt pattern for all 40's... I assume there isn't play on the door female end.... where one can come down and other up?

Your opinion on this 68 tub under body

modification....cross member cutted ,why ? Because of 4 speed conversion ?

 

[Dunkane]

hello i have the same tool box under driver seat, but seems there is no hook on the cover for the 2 latches
why ?

On my 72 the latches clip on the seat frame. Unhook the latches, slide the seat towards the door, remove the seat, open tool box.

The large clamp holds the jack itself, and the smaller four clamps are for the jack rods.

Your second photo is for a later jack holder and the spring clips are part of larger brackets that hold jack rods.

 

[Dunkane]

What part is it ? (So many parts i don’t know )
