Hello I did my repair but I have a question in mind. Does it fit perfectly on the plastic legs in the glass regulator or it only holds my 3 screws. I made the adjustment well, but only the plastic coating in the 3 screw regulator that holds my glass does not touch the feet. What should be

@MarcoCerqueira Күн бұрын

Sorry, I don’t think I really understand your question. However, if you’re talking about the three screws that hold the metal regulator in place those should be tight. If you’re talking about the screws that hold the actual glass in place those do not need to be super tight, but there should not be any slack. If I remember correctly, I believe those plastic washers go in front and behind the glass so that there’s no actual metal touching the glass. Everything should go back the way it was before you remove it. Hope this helps. Good luck.

Hi, So did you ever get your window washer system working. I was hoping to see you locate the tubing under the dash. My tubing is clogged and blowing air does not free it.

From bracket to bracket, it’s about 13.75”, but this the chain itself vary depending on the carabiners you use at the ends. Good luck

I wanted to watch to see how you bleed the brakes by yourself...lol

@MarcoCerqueira 21 күн бұрын

I just used the gravity method. Filled up the reservoir and just let it pour out the bleed nipple on the caliper. This doesn’t always work perfectly but in this case it worked fine.

I didn’t add mounting holes because they might be different for an Acty with air-conditioning versus an active without air conditioning. This way you can drill the holes accordingly.

Nice vid! The only recommendation I would have made would have been to scrub the battery box and tray with a baking soda solution before painting or etching. Just to neutralize residual acid accumulation so as not to compromise paint integrity.

I didn’t know about that…thanks for sharing.

@Nanashi_MYOB 2 ай бұрын

@MarcoCerqueira No problem, I learned about it when I was doing a restoration on a 63 Nova that had sat for years. The winter temps cracked the battery and let it drain out all over the passenger side engine compartment. A "body tech" repainted the affected area, and it turned out just as bad a year later. All the paint pealed, and the surface rust had spread further. After asking a buddy who did high-end restoration, he asked if anyone neutralized the spilled acid as just washing won't get rid of residue. He recommended baking soda. Sure enough, over 15 years later, no issues! Hopefully, my irksome and dollar wasting mistake helps save someone some coin and headache.

I did this on my wifes convertible. Huge job, this is. It's always the same plastic piece that brakes. I'm surprised an aftermarket company hasn't designed a metal on to replace it, so it never brakes again, like the vacuum actuator lever on the intake manifold. Only one window quit working, but I ordered the kit with both repair parts for both sides. It's a good thing, because the other one was broken too. It just didn't bind like the other one. It broke in a slightly different section. Good video. I just got me the same car I got my wife, and now one side is grnding when it goes up. The guy I bought it from said he had it in the shop to repair one of the windows. It seems they only fixed the one and didn't bother with the other one. What? You're not supposed to have extra parts when you're done? I thought that was supposed to be a sign of a good mechanic that can get the job done with less parts. LOL

Are your “ struts”( shocks?) holding the axle from fully extending ? They will fail I think, longer shocks may be a good idea…also just cut off those bolts and chase the threads with a die… I have watched all your Acty videos and am surprised those 2 simple things got by you.
