What did you do with your 60 this weekend? (6 Viewers)

This happened a couple weeks ago but with the help of @POTATO LAUNCHER we installed

HFS lift springs from Cool Cruisers
tie-rod ends from Cruiser Corps
horns from '92 Cadillac
BFGoodrich TA 30.50x9.5x15 on stock rims from Discount Tire

For those that have replaced their old, tired suspension you know what an incredible difference this makes. I'm driving a very smooth '62 these days.

Nice find. My vertically challenged wife would appreciate that feature.

Get seat foam from Specter. My seat rose 5" with it.

Burp the system? Putting in a new CSF on tuesday... any further info on this?

Today I installed my new radiator. (Thanks Santa.) Burped the system (never knew about this until I read it here on the forum) wish I knew who to thank for that post/instructions. I read sooo many. It ran about an hour while I burped it, heater was blowing really warm before it was over. The temp needle stayed slightly below the middle of the gauge.

Jack up the front end as high as you can, and run the heat on blast. Give it some gas and the coolant will circulate and the bubbles will work their way up and out. keep the cap off the radiator throughout this entire process until you don't see any bubbles

Driving it to work (60 mile round trip), around town yesterday, church today, enjoyed watching the temp gauge stay mid range and no leaks when it's parked. Happiness is a new, installed, everything working correctly, radiator.

Don't forget to give the top hose a squeeze every now and then - it'll help the bubbles escape.

That's what I tell all the women I date...wait you're talking coolant.
