Remove switch from mounting place using 14mm deep socket Switches out

Pulling it out was very easy once I knew how to do it. :-) Some photos for other newbies Remove the three light bar screws. Light bar comes out easy Need to find out where I can find light bar replacement bulbs.. Remove these two top screws And these two bottom screws And it pulls...

Found some very helpful documentation here...

Thanks. I downloaded the factory service manual and could not find anything about switch replacement. I was considering trying to clean/fix the switch. May be easier to just purchase a replacement so I can quickly swap it out. They sure ain't cheap!

Ok, since I hear nothing but crickets....I'll start tearing into it and post my finding here when I figure it out...

The windshield wiper switch in my 72 challenger needs to be replaced. What's involved with removing it? I checked the forums, service manual and Google and cannot find anything that details switch removal. Found lots of info on where to get the switch restored but not much on how to remove it...

Got a letter from Summit racing. The power steering box has been delayed over a week.:icon_sad: If I'm going to wait I might as well get something waiting for. Canceled my order and plan to go with the firm feel stage III So much for staying on budget. :rolleyes:

Got the starter in today. Waiting for the heli and power steering gear to arrive in the mail. :sleepy2:

:eusa_think: Department of engine vehicles? Engine trend magazine? Ford engine company? General Engines? Enpar? :confused:

I had no idea. Found this great video that details sure grip! (skip to 9:06) https://youtu.be/XMjbUqEGG3U?t=9m8s Keep learning more every day.

I'm learning a lot and having fun! Got the headers in. The far left original header nut is not tightening up as the bolt keeps turning in place. Removed it from the head. The bolt threads are fine which means the threads inside the head must be stripped out. Looks like the most common repair...

It has a 3.23 Posi rear.

Thanks for the advise! How much for a new set of hinges?
