where does this part go ...

#1

Post by pass_the_bacon »

Hello all,

Well after a few year break I finally got back to working on my 76 project.

Seem to have a couple extra parts that I haven't found a home for - see attached photo.

This year I have been doing a frame up sort of restoration and to date have done:
- stripped everything down to frame
- sand blasted
- painted
- systematically put back together, missed something, took apart, re-assembled - repeat
- getting there though and currently working on front suspension re-assembly

So any idea where I put these seals?

you were correct - assembling forks now and eying up a mass tangle of wiring that needs to be sorted out

thanks for the help

If you haven't done so already, there are downloadable color wiring diagrams available free in ShopTalk...
