Thanks for the link. I'll have a look.
I should know later today if the rebuild on mine will work, if not I'll contact the seller..

If I was in the US, I'd probably just get mine refurbished or get an exchange one, but that's going to be a last option.
In the mean time, I've been intouch with a shop in Sydney that may be able to...
Hi Folks,
I'm needing some help.
I have a '66 LeSabre and it looks like the centre link is worn out.
I'm in Australia, and I've ordered just about every other steering part I need, but I'm having...

Hi Guys,
I'm looking for a...
Hi guys.
Can someone tell me the thickness of the body mounts on my LeSabre please. I've got to fix some rust around the mounts, so I figure I should replace the mounts while I'm there
The ones on...
Thanks Bob,
Looking at the first wiring diagram, that looks like the black switch is the correct one to use, but in saying that... it still doesn't look correct in regards to the piece sticking up...
Hi guys, looking for a bit of advice.
I have '66 Lesabre with the switch-pitch auto, when I got the car the wiring was butchered, so I'm trying to fix/replace what I can, and I'm unsure as to which...
Hi Ron.
Thanks for your kind offer of the seat medallions, but I've already bought some.
Once I found out what they were actually called (medallions & fobs), I did a search and found a few...
Hi Again,
Thanks to those who replied to my question.
It looks like these little gems are called 'Seat Medallions' or 'Seat Fobs'.
I've done a search under the medallion name and found some pretty...
Thanks guys.
I've searched under both those names, and many others. No luck yet.
Even the upholsterer said they were called seat buttons.
Hi Guys,
Does anyone know what the correct name for these little pieces is.
They are on the backs of the seats and some cars have them on the door trim too.
These are on my '66 Lesabre, I'm...
Thanks Tony,
I'll do some investigating and see what I come up with.
Thanks guys.
I'll check it out.
Cheers.
Hi Tom.
To be honest, I'd never heard of a switch pitch until Tony was here when we did the brake kit. I thought the unit on the manifold was for cruise control. It was disconnected when I got the...
Thanks Tom.
That sounds like a better option.
I'm in Australia, so finding all those other parts for a TH400 swap may be relatively easy in the states, but finding things like a tailshaft here...
Hi Guys,
I was lucky to have Tony help me fit this kit on my '66 Lesabre yesterday.
Everything fell into place without any fuss at all.
It was good to have Tony there to help get the kit on, but...
Hi Guys,
Just a question. Will a BOP TH400 fit up behind a 340 (in a 66 Lesabre convert)?
And if it will, what else will I need to replace or modify, tailshaft / crossmember?
Either that, or...
Thanks for the information Tom.
I just had a quick look at Tonys kits and I'll get intouch with him.
I wasn't too worried about postage from the US for the Scarebird kit... I found a company...
Hi Guys,
I see on a previous post some folks talking about the Scarebird disc kits.
Has anyone used their kit on '66 LeSabre? What are your thoughts?
I live in Australia, so I was looking at...
Hi Guys,
I just happened upon this forum when searching for information, and I'm glad I did.
Earlier this month I bought a 1966 LeSabre Convertible. Pretty happy with the car, but not the seller...
