A direct-fit header panel bolt kit engineered for 1970 Plymouth Barracuda models to replace worn, corroded, or missing fasteners that secure the front header/valance to the body. These bolts restore proper alignment and clamping of the header panel, preventing rattles, water intrusion, and body panel movement. Constructed for durability and straightforward installation, this kit is ideal for restorations, maintenance, and long-term reliability.
Features:
- Fits 1970 Plymouth Barracuda (1970 model year).
- Complete bolt kit includes the correct sizes and quantities for the header panel attachment.
- High-grade steel construction with a corrosion-resistant finish for lasting durability.
- Secures the front header/valance to the body to prevent vibration, misalignment, and water leaks.
- Direct-fit replacement for restoration projects and routine maintenance.
- Easy to install with common hand tools; restores factory fit and appearance.
Installation / Application:
- Difficulty: 2/5
- Estimated time: 30-60 minutes
Instructions:
- Park vehicle on a level surface and ensure engine is cool; disconnect battery if working near electrical components.
- Inspect the header panel area and locate all existing fasteners that attach the header/valance to the body.
- If removing old bolts, apply penetrating oil and allow to soak. Remove old bolts using the appropriate socket or wrench. Use care to avoid stripping heads.
- Clean bolt holes and mating surfaces with a wire brush or thread chaser to remove rust, paint, and debris.
- Lay out the new bolts and confirm sizes/quantities match the locations to be installed.
- Position the header panel/valance correctly and hand-start bolts in all locations to ensure proper alignment.
- Tighten bolts progressively and evenly to draw the panel into final position. If available, torque to the factory specification; otherwise, snug to a firm fit without over-tightening.
- Apply anti-seize to bolt threads if future removal is desired, or thread locker if vibration resistance is required.
- Inspect the installed panel for gaps, proper alignment, and secure fit. Recheck torque after a short test drive or a few heat/cool cycles.
