It should work with those calipers mounted on the back like that, but you'll just have a heck of a time routing the flex hose. :alan2cents:

I've seen people ruin the upper control arms by pressing the ball joint out when it's a threaded situation.   :notsure:  Maybe someone pressed an old one out and that's why the new ones didn't fit?  But sounds like you got a set to screw in so maybe that's not it and they just sent you the wrong size?

But when I installed the ball joint it would not tighten up, too loose. Maybe they gave me the wrong part.
I think they sent the incorrect ball joints, I screwed the others in and it was fine. And BTW, I learned of the screw ball joints  here.  :worship:

Timbbuc2

I didn't see another one in my pile of parts, but I think I a long AC vent piece.   :notsure:   I think it's the AC tube piece that goes up the defrost.


Timbbuc2

I think I have everything ie defrost, vents tube just missing the one you had, Anyone have one? :soshelp:

I don't know that they have them but try 521Restorations and/or Hoover auto parts.  They both have a lot of reproduction parts.

@Timbbuc2  I just bought one of these on eBay. Looks just like the 1970 version only lots cheaper.
