Hey all, The Maverick is running well and my family had fun at the local car show today (20 miles away). We are just getting started, but my son...
Hey guys, It just seems like the hoses are pretty darn hot to the touch (and they should be). We pushed a little coolant out the first few longer...

40+ years, likely never serviced, I’d rather have quick look and make it easier to service in the future. 4 bolts on each end to slide the axles...
Thanks guys, that makes sense. I will slide the axles out some, remove the small copper washers and get it out of there for a little clean-up and...
