Oh, missed the listing then and I tried to search first. I hope I don't have to bend anything, that is the idea. But the old ones are in need of replacement anyway! Of course I could go to local metal works shop and ask them to make new ones. As I explained, the axle perches have moved a bit...

My hurry to get Mirada on the road for this summer is again over, due to once again expanding the project a bit too far. Maybe next summer! Right now I am in a lookout for front spring mounts for Mirada with stock springs (oval front bushing with 9/16" bolt). I found a few models but some seem...

The mystery is unfolding, to a degree. The problem is (in theory) that the arm turning the mechanism does not stay in the pivot point (the rectangular base of the lever itself). These are seen left-most on the second image. When the lever is turned clock-wise it should turn the plate behind all...

Hello! Sorry if this post seems hard to comprehend but I'll try my best. Anyone have insight about the latch and/or release system on passanger side? The seat moves front and back from the release lever from the front under the seat. But the lever to flip the seat over to allow entering the...
