Thank you. I have often considered running additional grounding to the various light housings or at least to the bolted on panels of the car as it is reassembled just to make sure problems do not occur.

Yes, you can e-mail me on [email protected]. Could not find a new coupling so I made one out of a rubber conveyer band with 5 ply reinfocement, very similar to the original. Just a temporary repair, will try harder on finding one later.

Its better to use a round bar or tube through the eyes of the yokes to get them aligned. The surfaces of the yokes are not that accurate. Other than that, this is how ive shortend dozens of prop shafts and drive shafts. Never had to balance one.

@ifixmycarmyself2502 6 ай бұрын
Haha, don’t worry, these particular bearings are ball bearing and the bearing retainer slides over the bearing and a locking ring fits in a groove on the outer bearing ring and will keep the bearing and retainer in place. But if it was a conical bearing I would for sure share your concern :)

Hey if your axle shaft seal was leaking, its usually caused by the seal retaining plate being bent on the seals surface. Heat up the plate with torch lightly and set retaining plate on table after removing bearing and lock collar ring and lightly tap the rim surface of plate with a small flat sludge until its flate all the way around rim. Change bearings and seals and locking collars and you wont have another Axle leak! But if your plate is slightly bent and you reuse plate without straightening the rim, you can get leaks just 2-4 months after replacing bearings.

Great video. I grew up doing this when rebuilding axels. You can get the pipe longer than your axel then thread an end cap on it. Helps when hammering away on it so the end doesn’t flair out.

PS, The Broughams have there own cylinder block, but even if rusty can be rebuilt. Originally designed to have Fuel injection,it couldn't be made to be reliable so the tried and true tri power set up was used. The gauges are pretty specail and use their own Brougham specific items. There is a guy in the US caddy club who makes a replacement module which allows the gauges to work properly. The mild custom work could have been done in 58' as the economy was booming and people had real money to spend on things like getting their new car personalised. the upholstery could be original,because there were 300 plus different options for the interior so no two Broughams are alike .

The Eldo Brougham is a very rare car as only around 100 were built each year. I worked at a high end resto shop where a customer bought one in for resto(1957). It had sat for decades and was really beyond restoration .$200,000 later and only the body work was done. Air suspension,stainless roof ,3/4 size compared with other caddilas,6 electric motors in each seat, all needed work but the car was never finished and went to another shop where it sits taking up space.
