I didn't see an easy way of doing that when I was under the car last time but I had the front driver side wheel still on this weekend (car was on ramps). I will look again next time I have the wheel off and see if I can make something like that work.Have you tried to bolt the bracket to the frame rail and bolt the horns to the bracket?
Regarding the crusty seal on the back of the stock air box, I would go to a home improvement store of your choice and
purchase some new adhesive foam weatherstripping. They sell it in many different sizes, you could even get some
in a neoprene rubber.
Clean off your old stuff really good , wipe it down with some paint prep, rubbing alcohol etc. and stick down the new stuff.
I'll be taking a trip down to southern VA from CT this weekend , I'll honk on the way by.
Proportioning valve for the added rear disk brakes.
The bracket used to hold the ac accumulator for the air conditioning system, which has been deleted.
Can’t see the last pics, but valve cover gaskets are a common source of leaks
ThanksThat 'fire extinguisher strap' is for the ac hose, it has a big can on it, can't remember what it's for.
Or what he ^^^ said.
Yeah, kinda slow on the keyboard
Some heat and a pair of vise grips.
There is a couple different things to keep in mind, the nut is 'captured ' by a thin piece of metal so care must be taken or the nut can be torn from bracket.
You can try blaster or similar product and vice grips and just wiggle, wiggle, wiggle till it comes out. Take a file or a small grinder and hit it on the broken side so none of the broken side of the bolt is exposed, may make it easier.
Thanks for this input. I tried a little bit with the drill/wire brush to file it down. I was able to see a little bit of progress but it seems heat and or an actual grinder would be more sufficient.Grab that nib with some vice grips, heat up the backside, and twist it out
Added a little bit more color to the fox

Also found a possible better use for the ac accumulator bracket thing
Was planning to replace the fuel filter this weekend but realized the filter I received from American Muscle didn’t include the retaining clips so had to order those. Filter will have to wait until next weekend.
Thanks man. Interestingly, I found that the oil filter was actually quite a bit cheaper at AM than LMR but I was already ordering some small things from LMR anyways. I won't make the mistake of ordering things like fuel filters from AM again though...I'm just trying to be responsible given the current epidemic situation and order things via mail rather than going to the store in person.Red lettering looks good!
Don’t waste you’re money getting parts like that filter at AM. They’re probably charging you double what the local parts store has it for (and they come with clips).
I bet you could trade those wipes for several fuel filters
I should have clarified, it's a brand new battery that I picked up a few weeks ago.That or the battery is losing power from just being old, get your volt meter out and check the battery voltage.
