Re: [Chevelle-list] Z bar refurbishing

[John Nasta]

I know that the nylon bushings, pivot ball, etc. are all available, but I have never installed them myself.     -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, January 16, 2006 10:29 AM To: Chevelle List Subject: [Chevelle-list] Z bar refurbishing   On my ’66 Z bar on the frame end, I was able to remove the seat clip and remove the outer (Nylon) seat.  A slight interference with the end weld on the bar is preventing the pivot ball from coming out the frame end.  Is it supposed to come out the frame end?  It seems that if I try to push the pivot ball in, it stops up against the inner seat.  Perhaps the inner seat is supposed to stop against a shoulder in the Z bar to keep the seat positioned where it’s at.   Looking for steps in refurbishing/ replacing the frame end / pivot ball components.  Anybody done this?   Thank you for your help.   Krister Meister ’66 SS #’s
