    I would break it down myself, you need to remove the rollers (most plating shops will damage or destroy them) and disassemble the frame. You'll need to remove the screws/rivets holding the stainless on the cast frame, work it loose from the glass channel tape, and then work the glass from the frame.

    A high-speed pedestal buffer does a nice job on the stainless, and ask your local Mustang club about the plating. One thing about platers, most of them take a long time, seems to be a norm in the plating business.

    Hey 22 GT,
    Looking to rechrome the quarter windows for concourse restoration. The window trim is chrome and stainless. Do you know a reputable source who would tear down, rechome pot metal, buff stainless and reassemble the frames with glass? I was going to attempt but was worried I might damage the original glass. Also unsure if the rollers need to be removed.

    I was speaking with Slim - he thought you may have a recommendation.

    Regards

    The screws point downward, pass through the steel of the dash, and into the steel clips on the box.

    22GT, when installing a 66 glove box, where does the glovebox flange go in relation to the dash flange? I forgot to take pictures before I removed my old one. From looking at pics on the new, on the upper flange, the glove box flange go on top of the dash flange, but how is the bottom supposed to be? Thanks again as always

    Oh- if the OE idler bracket is gone, you'll need G04006.

    Sure- The 66 V8 manual steering is simple. I'll give you the list, with Glazier/Nolan part numbers. The V8 used entirely different steering linkage than the 6, unless the 6 had PS, then a couple of parts are common. Naturally, the spindles are different, too. The 6 was based on the Falcon, while the V8 was based on the Fairlane.

    Pittman arm - G04134
    Idler arm - G04087
    Center link - G04137
    Inner tie rod end (2) - G04100
    Adjuster sleeve (2) - G04090
    Outer tie rod end (2) - G04095

    Hey... I am in the middle of swapping parts from my falcon to my 66 mustang.... I had thought I could swap in the power steering system but the steering is completely different..... Live and learn..... I am converting from a 6cyl to V8 and have read that the center link needs replaced.... Well from what I can see theres alot more than a center link to replace.... I consider you a go to guy.... What do I need to do? Need an accurate parts list please..... Or point me at a thread?? Also is this an important consideration due to fitment of engine.... Improved stability or what? What happens if we don't make this correction/ I am not as versed with ford as chevy......Thanx for any help Roy

    If the idler arm bracket is corroded or damaged, replace it.

    I avoid the use of polyurethane whenever possible, neoprene is far more smooth and quiet, with little sacrifice of performance.
