^^what he said x 2
The main reason I didn’t was I didn’t have parts on hand and my goal was to get some road time in it today to see what other quirks arise. I agree they should have been inspected/ replaced. Once I get to where I deem it road worthy, I will pull the rotors to get them turned and inspect the spindles seals and bearings. The good thing about these is you can tear one down in 15 minutes.Only thing I would have done different is knock the spindles off and check the "V" seals, bearing for the stub shaft and U Joints while I was that deep.
Chains wear, get loose, might jump a tooth, or just break. When the do, they wrap up in a wad & bust the case!When that chain broke, it really fubared the case! Makes one wonder what caused it.

Good eye and nope, it was already broke off. I "thought" about trying to drill it out and re-tap, but figured it wasn't leaking before so it was left for another day, maybe..lol and yes, the alternator bracket and power steering bracket have to be removed.Did you break a bolt off, next to the bypass hose? I sure Love the AMC design of having the heater hose nipple, Behind the Alternator bracket!
I replaced the master cylinder last night with one I have that was fairly new and now have brakes again. If the booster goes south, I will replace it at that time. Good thing about this is that I am getting some use out of a bunch of parts that were taking up space!Thanks for update Steve. I'd be willing to bet, anything that has a seal of some sort will need replacing, or a new seal. I'd go ahead and replace the booster too while doing the MC.
Ha Ha.... it is not the same color, but there have been parts supplied from it!.Didn't know you had an Extra one. Same color too! Bonus parts!
Yes it worked, has all wires, plug connections for power and speakers, antenna splitter and mike for CB as well as dash plug for mike. Make an offer. ( these are hard to find and this is complete). Thanksdid the original radio work? if so willing to sell it?
