hi.  does anyone have a pic on how the linkage goes on the side of the heater core box with ac for a 69 charger that shows how the springs are attached on the bottom? whoever worked on it before didn't reinstall it correctly when they changed out the heater core. i did a search and i found a few pics but i am really looking on how the springs attach to the bottom of the linkage.  thanks in advance.

Sorry, didn't read your post properly the first time....

it looks like there should be 2 springs on the bottom.

I am missing one then.. I assume it would go in the small hole in the "S" link and the small hole in the side of the box hidden under the linkage.

i noticed on the sms page there are 4 springs on the parts layout pic.  i only have one spring so i guess i am missing 3 springs.  any ideas where i can pick up 3 springs?  thanks.

Well, I got my hardware back from plating and my plater lost the only spring I had  :brickwall:  I guess I have to track down new springs.... Restoring this heater box cost WAY more then I wanted it too and probably would have been cheaper to buy one already done from SMS  :brickwall: 

I'll give SMS and Tom Race a call later to see if they sell the springs....

let me know what they say.  thanks.

Although I'm not going to part an A/C box out,,but I would be willing to snap off a few pictures if needed

And I have a few B-body 66-70 B-body A/C boxes here, so if you need pics of any area let me know.

that would be great :cheers:.  what i am looking for is a pic of the bottom of the linkage showing where the springs connect at.  there is supposed to be 2 springs.  thanks.

I have 4 different A/C boxes on hand. And I'll have to ck dates on t them to be 100% sure if any or none are 69 Boxes( but I am pretty sure this one is a 68 Box )

If you need more let me know and I'll take them down out of the loft for better pictures in better lighting

This one ' I think ' is a 67 B-body
