Fixing The Rear End "clunk"

Posted on: Tuesday July 6, 2010

Today the quest continues with more great discoveries. The past few days I’ve been working through replacing all the bushings and the two rear leaf springs. After a day of removing worn out bushings and busted springs, the car was lowered to the ground…only to discovered that I know have a jacked up drag racer with a 3 to 4 inch lift in the back. Bummer So while I contemplate on how to fix the spring issue…I discovered another “clank” in the back end. This time the noise came from the...

Posted on: Saturday July 3, 2010

After putting it off for so long, the day has arrived to replace the leaf springs on the olds girl. New springs came in yesterday from V.B., along with new bolts and bushings.

I find stopping to be pretty important. The starter has been driving me ...

Posted on: Tuesday June 10, 2008

Things are almost there. I took my car up to my brother-in-law's shop two weeks ago. There's an older mechanic there that's worked on MG's before. Really all they were doing was small tune up stuff...new tires, new muffler, and going over the breaks. Then I went up last weekend to do some work on it myself...and boy did I get into it. :-) First I went to replace the fuel sending unit since my fuel gauge hasn't worked for awhile...and I discovered why it hadn't. The unit was completely covere...
