1975 164e parts availability - where?? 140-160

posted by  someone claiming to be Craig on  Wed Sep 29 19:12 CST 2010 [RELATED]

greetings all,
i"m looking for good resources for parts for my 1975 164 e. Items such as fuel pump relay, brake caliper parts, front end bushings, etc. and other general stuff.
Usually Napa's been good with my other projects, but this one is taxing them.
Thanks in advance,
Craig

      Thanks guys – I’ve tried FCP and IPD with no luck on the relay or fuel injection temp sending unit. I know I can graft a later relay onto the 164, but I’d really rather use original type equipment. I’ll give Vintage Import Parts and RPR a try.

    Fuel pump relay: You could easily use a regular relay for that.

    Bushings: I'd switch to 140 upper control arms & use poly bushings. The 164 upper bushings are just too expensive. I'd stay with stock rubber bushing for the lower arms unless you are planing to use stiffer springs & always use ultra sticky tyres.

    Brake caliper parts should be easy too.
