Last post by Taylor - Today at 12:31:53 PMBeen looking into that problem, never found it in the code. So I will ask tech support to perform the deletion for us.
I found it odd the RT66 Rambler disappeared.

Last post by mudkicker715 - Yesterday at 09:08:50 PMI gave it a look and wasted a bunch of time trying. The forum home page I only see one thing to edit. That is not the one thing.
Also the amcevolution link has been dead for years, that would be another thing to remove.

Your Eagle(s) / Re: 1983 SX/4 Dull "Penny"
Last post by EagleSX4_5Speed - Yesterday at 12:38:07 PMGot the transmission mount changed over the weekend and it has made a huge difference in the vibration and noise I have been trying to figure out for the last 6 years.
Also pulled and resealed the transfer case. The front seal was leaking and fluid was leaking past the splines of the output yokes.

Body Shop / Crooked Bumper
Last post by MIPS - Yesterday at 11:09:12 AMWhile working on an unrelated job over the weekend I took a glance at the car and realized my bumper was crooked.
At some point in the life of this car it saw a pretty bad crash on the front passenger side but it was pulled out and mostly repaired. There's still a crease in the fender and weird fitment issues with the bumper cap but it was more or less square. Now I can visibly see while looking at photos I took in September that the passenger side is pushed in about half an inch causing the passenger side bumper cap to excessively buckle and the other side to pop out of its slot on the end of the bumper.
This car does not have the 5mph shock absorbers on the bumper but I'm doing a visual inspection and cannot see any signs of bent, deformed or shifted mounts or bodywork other than the small amount from previous acccident long ago, so either this happened in the recent past and the road grit's had time to mask it or I'm missing another point somewhere else where it moved.
It's way too cold right now to be handling the plastics but is there an adjustment somewhere I can use to realign the bumper or will I need to elongate the bolt holes on the passenger bracket to shift it forward?

Project Cars / Re: My First Car - 86 Wagon
Last post by 89 MJ - January 19, 2025, 08:29:32 PMMy driver door sill plate was in real rough shape (corroded holes in it), so I found nicer ones and got those installed recently. No pictures though because the lighting was terrible and it was cold

Last post by 89 MJ - January 19, 2025, 08:16:21 PMIs there any chance we can get rid of the RT66 button at the top of the page? It doesn't seem to bring us to an AMC related site anymore
