I was checking the wheel bearing and brakes on the car and on the drivers side it was missing the shoe return spring and the grease cover. I had a grease cover so I installed that. I thought I saw the spring in all the extra parts I got with it but I'm still looking for it.
The shocks were put in upside down with the dust cove facing up so ot would catch water.
So I cut the cover off and discovered that the shocks are too long and bottom out with all the weight on them. So they will need to be replaced with a shorter shock. I also noticed the rear does not have any shocks.
It also has a bent tie rod.
I also installed the rear bumper and licence plate bracket.
And got some new scoops for the new flathead. These will have small air cleaners inside.
