Here is the lifting puck or ‘spacer’ info. I bought mine on eBay

Well, they aren’t a charity. I get that. And I bet they don’t much care for giving out free advise on how to diy

They all want to build an adapter or order a kit. I want direct fit.

Update. I found Monroe 5820 they have 3.75 inches more travel so they may just work. They arrive tomorrow. Hope they work. Local mechanic’s shop very confident they will.

Stock shocks are 20 7/8 inches extended length 8 1/8 “ stroke 12 3/4 “ compressed length i can’t find any with longer extended length

Good info on this thread! this forum always seems to come through

Welcome to the group! nice ride

I have the rear lifted 4inches with pucks under springs. So stock shocks are too short & top out frequently. anybody know which shocks would be suitable? I’m just learning the metrics & the guys at the Autoparts places I visited were little to no help.

I replaced my weatherstrip & don’t remember seeing anything like that. I think I’m going to glue mine as they won’t stay up properly when window is down.

Howdy! Welcome Somebody will chime in with an original air cleaner lead. I think you can buy new ones at places like OPGI and The Parts Place but it sounds like you want to keep it original which is great i too have a 70. Glad you found us and that cool ride!

Take pics as you go & post em

What are these? And great lookin ride btw!

Did y’all know tire rubber is dyed black by adding carbon black to naturally white rubber? Sometimes I can’t remember why I came into the living room but useless information is at the ready!

Ok, I got 12 gauge fuselink wire from auto parts store. This wire can self destruct. IT IS THE FUSE, so to speak. this was unclear to me so I post that for anyone else seeking the information in the future. i cut a piece about 9 inches long & crimped connectors onto both ends. One brass for the battery side and one standard for the threaded stud that is on core behind headlight. I have started it several times, with lights on and without lights on. Drove it 40 miles or so and it works without any issues.

Does anyone know the part number for this fuseable link ?

I guess so. It has run fine for 6 yrs with a heavy gauge wire running from that post to positive batt terminal . What & where is the fuseable link?

Awesome! Thank you. I can’t find what amp fuse is required. Any help there?

I found this mess changing out my battery…. So what is supposed to be wired here? (White circle 2nd pic)I have a black wire & red wire on it. The black wire goes to positive post on battery. The red comes from wire bundle that comes out from in front of radiator. (White lines 1st pic) I am thinking the post is a ground that is wired wrong.

I have no idea. I have never tracked mpg on it. I know it starts when I turn the key, every time. no pumping the gas pedal etc. Sorry

Im ashamed of my wires. I need to get them right eventually

Too late for Robert I fear … but may I add…Don’t use impact drivers on them.

My sniper runs great on my SB you can even get it in the Quadra junk color if ya want Love it.

Got front & rear glass re-installed by a pro. And FINALLY put reveal molding back on! I am very pleased with the job.

Parts Place was good for me as well

Howdy! Great to see another Monte being returned to the road. this place has lots of knowledge & good folks
