loshar; have someone help u take off the hood (unlatch both sides) one man on each side and lift off. remove sheet metal cover in front of radiator, two 1/2 bolts from that side and one more under fender ( u might have to take off the park light door first) good luck. dell

chad; if pry the socket side to side it should come right out. dell

welcome to another woodie owner, there should be a pressed in collar to hold 2nd gear on-there is a preload for the 2nd gear bearing. at one time someone in canada was rebuilding them, but have no info other then that. u can find them on ebay sometimes. u might have to look for an extra r9 for parts, check or put an add on this sight. good luck. dell

chad; license light bulb is removed from inside trunk-long metal socket pulls out- just follow the wire. dell

it is correct and i would love to have one just to be able to say i have the correct jack for my 42. have a great new year. dell

i believe the jr. housing uses a spring, if u need one i have an extra. dell

hi jeff; the seal sure looks good' is the cove bent? u should be able to see the seal or check with a right angle fine wire to see if u have contact before u put on the balancer. dell

jeff; one other thing u might look at is the fitting that the oil pressure gauge, filter and line to lifters, it has a restriction to cut down on the volume to the lifters. if some one drilled that out u will get a lot more oil to the lifters and cam side of block. dell

hi jeff; at one point u said u were worried about tight bearing. do u know what the rods and mains are at and did u put in new cam bearings? the oil is going some place. if u have an extra .0005 on the mains u will loose a lot of pressure. the weight of the oil will effect the pressure to a point- the relief valve acts on pressure and if all the clearances are in the ball park i would shim the spring to get 40 lb's when driving
