- This is how I removed the rear end in the ‘67 Firebird and some of the issues I ran into. Hopefully this will give you the confidence knowing that if someone like me with no experience can do it by myself, you can too. Thanks for watching.
Excellent job on pulling the rear end on your 67 Firebird!!! You're doing great, keeps these videos coming!
Thank you. And thanks for putting your video out on that. I watched it about 5 times to get it right. I appreciate you putting out videos. They help us tremendously 👍
I have never had great luck in removing the rear spring shackle bolts. Sawzall is definitely your friend during this stage
OMG, they were like welded together with rust. There was no way I was beating them out from the bottom. ✌️
@@JK_Nex_Garage I never thought of the access hole in the trunk floor instead of hanging upside down under the car that is brilliant
@@VinylVillageGarage I don’t know about brilliant, just wasn’t keen about taking full swings with Thor under the car. Thanks.😎
@@JK_Nex_Garage I am with you hanging upside down beating things loose is not fun. Work smarter not harder seeing how the floor is getting removed why not make an access hole
Exactly. 👍
I appreciate you guys showing us what your doing. I have two 400 Firebirds in my garage that I need to start on. Hopefully I can get to them before I start my dirt nap.
Thank you. Just need to jump in. That’s what we did. You’ll get them done. Just work on them at your own pace. It will be more enjoyable. Thanks for watching 👍
Thanks 👍 I'm pulling the rear out of my '68 Bird. This was a big help.
Excellent. Glad this video helped. This was the first time I ever removed a rear end. Hope you project is going well. Thanks for watching. 👍
Nice job removing the rear. I really liked the tie-down idea for the front of the car.
Thank you. I had no idea the pivot point on this car was so far back. The bags of rocks and salt were enough to hold it down, but better safe than sorry. Thanks for watching 👍
Nice job. I'm going to do mine the same way. Somebody put a trailer hitch on my car. I'm going to have to deal with that and getting the tank, fuel and brake lines out.
My brake lines and fuel tank were so bad, I cut them all out . Replacing both. Made the removal that much easier.
just noticed you have a traction bar on the pass side that could be a 400 car something to look into
I’ve looked into that, and found that the 6 cylinder engines had one on the right side as well. My hood has the 6 cylinder emblem on it as well. Thanks for the comment and watching, we appreciate it. 👍
Traction bars were on both sides of 67 400 manuals. 400 Auto cars had it on the right/passenger side only.
I don’t know about the sixes.
@@TheHsan22 more great information. Thanks for commenting. I’m always learning.👍
keep your stock rearend for no other reason than to keep the traction bar you can replace / upgrade it if needed. my 400 car is stock works great
Will do. Thanks for the info. Thank you for watching 👍
Guess you are replacing the trunk panel as well?
You know it. And there was no way I was getting under the car to beat those shackle bolts out. Thanks for watching.👍
