Fred is one of my heroes :P I guess that is not hard to figure out why :roll: Seriously, following him on this forum over the years has been inspirational to me as others here have as well, I don't think I would have made it as far as I have on my Comet without this place and I am not doing anythin...

Yes it's pretty common knowledge around here to get 65 falcon/comet centerlink when upgrading to 65 manual steering but if you dont mind we will use your pic in this thread which is in the ''drivetrain'' section; https://cometcentral.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=15083 to show because a pic grabs a...

welcome on !! !

Being it is a Mecum auction I ...

Just put it on youtube,then post a link to it on here. Congrats on the progress!!!

Mike I did the same repair on my Falcon I used the machine in the attached video it worked great. Since your using a stud style puller it will take longer but the video shows the technique. Start at the ends three or four studs at a time and work towards the center. If you end up with a line of rai...
