got the other tags/plates installed on the generator and distributor last night.

also installed the new Fisher Body Tag i got, used the rivet bolt kit from TFS worked great !!

those wondering how good of a job AGBackeast did on my Fisher body tag, I'd say he did a superb job.

here is a comparison picture.

working on the assembly, the two rod ends were bent and jacked up. working to try and gently straighten and reassemble the end. one of the rod end bolts snapped. spent some time looking around trying to find replacements. i am able to find similar size and shape but only with 5/16-18 threading, the ones on the brakes are 5/16-24 !! 5/8" diameter head, 5/16 width OAL of 3.25".

i was able to find a source for blank rod ends, and picked up a few, however they need to be cleaned up and then threaded and a 5/16 hole for the pin punched. talked to a few local machine shops but no one wants to do the work, not worth the time they say.
