Re: Trailer questions

Ive been pulling with a 22' Gooseneck for 20 yrs. Had a couple of Bumper Pulls before it and its like black and white when ur going forward. Backingup gets a little tricky - im sure if u had it on the back of ur truck 24-7 it would be NO BIG DEAL.
http://www.rvforum.net/SMF_forum/index.php?topic=23175.0
Ive had some big stuff in it and think the 22'is more than enough. If i had to do it again i would go with 22. Havent had 24 in the back but ive been in situations when im glad i didnt have another 2' back there. Dont know what u can order nowadays but i speced out 8 bolt axles mainly because the brakes were larger than the 6 bolt. Might think of a Vnose also - they really do cut the wind. Went a 1' higher than std for tall ones - needed it a couple of times - plus the door is longer which give u less angle when it turns into a ramp.

From passed working with these FACTORY Dwgs there right on. From that i would say that front view of the engine will give u the correct configuration of the Arm.

If only a car could write its AUTObiography what an interesting read this LeBaron could make

GREAT PHOTOS !!!!!!!!!
5 & 6 really show the body color on the Hubcap Rings & Legend.

Wood Graining in photo 3 is called BUTT WALNUT. Called out in Parts Book. Only seen it on maybe 1% of the cars. Used to think it was an option until last yr when an 1100 showed up with it along with it Factory Build Sheet which does not mention a thing about it. Another PACKARD mystery.

"The two top pictures David posted seem to support painted rings, but the third picture looks like someone did that with a brush. There appears to be paint on some of the letters. The second photo also has what looks like stray brush mark on these ribs."

Your statement about the brush marking goes with my theory that the PIN STRIPER was the one who painted the caps and this could b why u c hubcap on some light colored cars that have vendor black paint.
STRIPER was not busy they painted the caps.
STRIPER was busy they did not paint the caps.
BUT IVE BEEN WRONG BEFORE

BTW: Cars ive seen with the caps painted also have the luggage rack emblem painted - also called out in the parts book to Spec Color
