Re: Chasis and other body manuals

All of these publications are very informative. They are actual copies of the original engineering drawings used to assemble the cars at the factories. Good to use as a cross reference when working on your car.

Re: Drag Link touching sump

Thanks Kerry, you just saved me alot of time. Sean gave me the one off the engine from his F100 thinking they were the same. I just had a quick look on the net and I can see that the proper one is different to what I have. They have splayed edges also like the Canton ones do.

Re: Drag Link touching sump

Mounts are only 6 months old. The drag link is the correct one for a power steering setup. I have also changed upper and lower control arms, pitman arm and idler arm, and fully overhauled the power steering prior to changing the sump.

Hi all. First question to this wonderful forum for me so please tell me if I have explained myself fully. I have a 68 Fastback GT with an original S code engine and C6 transmission.
