      Hi Jim. Thx for watching. Tried to spice up vid. As caster and camber is boring.

    Very interesting video. I always enjoy your practical approach to things. I saw an original '29 touring at Hershey last year. The mass of those engines is unbelievable. My grandfather had a '32 until after WW2. The opening clip was great! I've seen that film. "G-man" I think. Gotta love the body role on the sedan. Thanks for your info. You're 100% correct, "drive em if you got em"

      Thx for watching. Tried to make it not boring. The G man clip is great as two Lincoln’s. One identical to mine.

    Since I was late for the premiere, I watched it from the start. I never have seen this done before. Great explanation and execution of the plan. Looks like the car drove better!

    Wow! It's interesting how a very minor change in toe or caster can change handling. The one thing you can't change on old cars is camber unless one bends the axle. We sure have come a long way with the strut suspensions we have today.

    • @KlepsGarage
      @KlepsGarage  Год назад

      Yes sir. Thx for watching. Struts wouldn’t look good in 1923.

    My comment disappeared. Don't forget to use a little castor oil to maintain your caster.

    Your Lincoln, is the first year as a Ford product. I think ok uncle Henry purchased Lincoln In 1922.

    • @KlepsGarage
      @KlepsGarage  Год назад

      You are correct. 22 mid year. 23 was first year total Ford production. Thx for watching.

    Looks like you also need that left front tire balanced it must have at least a pound of imbalance by the way it rolled back and forth

    Great car,great job Just one remark. Why didn't you grease your springpack while you where at it?, Kind regards from Belgium Blacksmith Filip Ponseele

    • @KlepsGarage
      @KlepsGarage  Год назад +1

      Probably should have didn’t feel like separating the spring. Cause then should have painted and before you know it would have whole car tore apart🤣🤔 thx for watching 👍

      @@KlepsGarage you have a point there bud imaging the smoother ride and less strain on the body and all the components. Love your sentence at the end of every episode. We, my son and i drive our Fordt model T tourer 1915 daily. , and thanks to greasing the springs ,less tire wear and she jumps like a grasshopper over every bump Kind regards Filip

      I will keep that in mind for the next repair. I noticed on my video when wrenching. The front axle was moving side to side. So. Need to address spring bolts and bushings.
      That’s the trouble with old cars. Where do you stop at repairs

    • @MickTheDig

      The spring pack on the early Lincolns should not be greased. They were designed to be dry.
