For all of you new guys that may not be mechanically inclined, BUY A FACTORY SERVICE MANUAL !!!!!! The early Z's are not that hard to repair and/or maintain but you must have at your side a FACTORY SERVICE MANUAL. The factory manual will tell you almost everything you need to know about your Z. They are the best guide to repairing your Z that you will ever get. Trust me ! I'm and old Motor head that has always bought the manual first. Good luck and buy a box of band aids.

cremmenga, Check out this site. They have a lot of god info on it. Tech Tips

And, yes, just start takin everything off that needs to and replace when done. There are a couple of tricks to getting some of the parts off/out. If you have difficulty with any specific parts, drop me an email.

Try tightening your front wheel spindle nuts a little bit. My 71 240 had the same issue. After replacing rack bushings, coupler and rack lash adjustments without sucess, I tried it. Belive it or not that fixed the problem. Wish I would have tried that 1st, rack bushings are a pain to install!

Thanks for the info on adjusting the nut on the Master cyl...I am going to try this...sure this is my wheel shimmy problem...seems to happen only once brakes are heated up.

Later,
