RQB3263 .... i JUST RE READ YOUR POST....I guess I miss interpreted it.... with the door open can you pull the window up even a small amount from its most up electric position ??...
-
RQB3263/81 .... It would appear then that the window regulator/ele. motor is not pushing the window up high enough to seal..... I replaced both regulators in RQB3263 recently (2022) ... it was a project .... but well worth it
-
RQB3263/81/305 ..... DOES the window go up further with the door open than with the door closed ?
-
RQB3263 .... THANKS i got it all and just need warm weather .....HAPPY HOLIDAYS .... BILL in Fl
-
RQB3263/81/305 .... i WANT TO FLUSH 3263S COOLENT/HEATER SYSTEM .... when it warms up .... There is a flush port in one heater hose.... appears original... that will allow me to attach a garden hose...... besides disconnecting the lower radiator hose what is the procedure for a complete system flush ?? thanks, Merry Christmas and stay warm up there , 21 in melrose, florida
-
RQB3263/81 .... ACTUALLY THERE ARE 5 BOLTS ..and you are correct the consensus here is that it is a Dana 44...I will let Mike and John Myer sort it out when I go to Ohio in the spring .... best wishes to all for a happy healthy holiday ..... BILL
-
RQB3263/81/305 ...... NO NOT necessary to remove the tank...... but you do need to be squirmy enough to get into the back seat.... I had a friend do mine .... 30 minutes round trip.... fixed forever....
-
RQB3263/81/305 .... THAT SOUNDS LIKE EXACTLY WHAT I HAD INSTALLED ...perfect.... and it gave me the opportunity to to easily drop the oil pan for cleaning, inspection, paint and new gasket..... after 41 yrs overdue.... it was surprisingly clean ...almost no crud ... see you all on the boulevard.... BILL

RQB3263/81/305..... MY ALL SS exhaust was installed by Myers Studebaker in Ohio ...I believe they get them from Ontario Canada.... Keep up the good work ....Happy Holidays ! .....BILL
-
RQB3263/305 ... Good MORNING from North AMERICA ... Thanks for the info .... the 700R4 OD works fine with the 305 .... I did de-pollute it completely, installed an RV torque Cam, and true SS dual exhaust...it almost never sees 2000RPM, 70MPH is 1850RPM.... everything helps a little bit.... and it all works fine to make a pleasurable cruiser... keep up the good work .....BILL in FL
-
RQB3263/81..... I will let our friends in Duncan Falls, Oh take care of that in the spring .... They keep them in stock and have the agility to install them.... along with rear disc brake kit and other things I will dream up over the winter.

I installed a 700r4 overdrive trans many yrs ago and my 305 (cammed and depolluted) rarely sees 2000 RPM .... perfect... now can you tell me what is the rear end? DANA 44 OR DANA 60... IM NOT SURE AND WANT TO INSTALL rear disc brake kit ..in the spring time for sure ...HAPPY CRUISING ... BILL
