CHASSIS SHEET METAL 11-13

HOOD ADJUSTMENT

The alignment of the hood in relation
to*
other sheet

metal parts is controlled by the position of the hood

hinges and the height of the two bumpers, located one at

each end of the radiator support. The adjustments at

the hood latch must be made after the hinges and bumpers

are positioned to yield the dimensions shown in Figure

17.
Latch adjustments are made so that effort required

to open and close the hood is reasonable, and hood align-

ment obtained by hinge and bumper adjustment is main-

tained when the hood is closed. Note that the hood latch

is not designed or intended to correct basic hood align-

ment faults.

To align the hood and lock, proceed as follows:

HOOD HINGE (Fig. 18)

1.
Note that the mounting holes in the body-mounted

end of the hinge are slotted to provide up and down

movement of the hood assembly while the hood

mounted end is slotted to provide fore and aft move-

ment.

2.
Scribe a mark around the entire hinge plate which

will be involved in the adjustment.

3.
Loosen the appropriate screws and shift the position

of the hood on the hinge plate the approximate amount

to correct misalignment, using the scribed marks to

check amount of movement. Check condition of ad-

justment by tightening cap screws and closing hood.

Fig.

Fig.
19 - Hood Lock, Catch and Support - Chevy II

HOOD BUMPERS

Hood bumpers must be adjusted until hood and fender

line up as shown in Figure 17.

HOOD CATCH AND LOCK (Fig. 19)

Hood lock plate mounting holes are slotted to provide

fore and aft adjustment of the hood lock bolt. The hood

lock bolt itself is adjustable for up and down positioning

of the lock bolt head so that its proper engagement in the

latch assembly may be provided for. The distance that

the lock bolt protrudes out of the lock plate should be

adjusted so that the hood bumpers are slightly com-

pressed by the fully latched hood and so that the effort

required to release the hood catch is reasonable.

FENDER ADJUSTMENT (Figs. 17 and 20)

DO NOT CHANGE SKIRT ASSEMBLY-TO-DASH SHIM-

MING IN AN EFFORT TO ADJUST THE DOOR-TO-

FENDER GAP OR ANY OTHER SHEET METAL AP-

PEARANCE ITEM.

The front fenders are shimmed independently of the

skirt assemblies, unlike conventional- vehicles on which

almost the entire front end sheet metal assembly is

shimmed and adjusted as a unit.

Figure 20 shows the locations of front fender shims.

1.
The rocker panel extension location allows adjust-

ment to make fender outer surface flush with door

outer surface.

2.
The upper or plenum chamber location provides a

means of adjusting fender upper surface so that it

is flush with the upper surface of the cowl.

3.
The locations atop the skirt assembly are shimmed

to close the gap created between the fender mounting

flange and skirt assembly when the plenum chamber

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The Camaro sheet metal components are much the

same as other Chevrolet passenger models as shown in

Figure 32. The front end design is such that servicing

of the fenders and skirts is most efficiently performed
by removing the fender and skirt as an assembly. Refer

to Section 14 for bumper service procedures, Section 13

for radiator and grille, and Section 1A for air condition-

ing components.

MAINTENANCE AND ADJUSTMENTS

HOOD ADJUSTMENT

The Camaro hood is adjusted in the conventional man-

ner, by adjustment of the hood bumpers and hinges. The

two hood bumpers are located on each side at the top of

the radiator support. Do not attempt hood latch adjust-

ments until the hinges and bumpers are correctly ad-

justed. Latch adjustments are made so that effort re-

quired to open and close the hood is reasonable, and

hood alignment obtained by hinge and bumper adjust-

ment is maintained when the hood is closed. Note that

the hood latch is not designed to correct basic hood mis-

alignment.

HOOD HINGE (Fig. 33)

NOTE: The body mounted portion of the hood

hinges are slotted to provide up and down move-

ment. The hood mounted end is slotted to pro-

vide forward and rearward movement.

1.
Scribe a. line around the entire. hinge plate to be

repositioned.

2.
Loosen the appropriate screws and shift the position

of the hood into correct alignment using the scribe

marks to check amount of movement. Check align-

ment by tightening screws and closing the hood.

HOOD BUMPERS

Adjust hood bumpers so that hood top surface is flush

with fender and header panel top surfaces. See Figure

34 for correct sheet metal adjustment dimensions.

HOOD CATCH AND LOCK (Fig. 35)

Adjust hood lock bolt so that top surface of hood is

flush with top surface'of header panel. The distance that

the lock bolt protrudes out of the lock plate should be

adjusted so that the hood bumpers are slightly com-

pressed by the fully latched hood, and effort required

to release the hood catch is reasonable. Close the hood

and insure catch engages securely.

FENDERS

Fenders are adjustable with shims at the cowl and

rocker panel. To add or remove shims, loosen bolts
Fig. 33 - Hood Hinge - Camaro

at shim locations (fig. 36) and carefully apply force with

pry bar to provide clearance for shim removal or in-

stallation.

SHEET METAL

For proper operation of doors and hood, and for pre-

sentable appearance, adjust front sheet metal to the di-

mensions shown in Figure 34.

COMPONENT PART REPLACEMENT

NOTE: When replacing sheet metal compo-

nents on Camaro, note position and attachment

of all seals and dust shielding and replace if

necessary.

WIPER ASSEMBLY REPAIRS

The overhaul procedures for the wiper are broken down

into three major areas: The motor section, gear box

section and washer pump section. Each section may be

serviced independently of the other.

MOTOR SECTION

Disassembly

1.
Remove the two motor tie bolts.

2.
Remove the armature end-play adjusting screw (fig.

91).

3.
Strike the steel case lightly with a mallet to partiaUy

loosen it from the die casting housing and motor

field.

4.
Insert a tool through the armature adjusting screw

opening and push against the end of the armature

shaft to back off the case. This will retain the ar-

mature commutator in position between the brushes

until ready to separate the armature from the case.

5.
To separate armature from case while still retaining

the brush springs and brushes in place fashion a

spring similar to that shown in Figure 95 and insert

behind the brush leads as shown.
Fig.
95 - Retaining Armature Brushes

6. Pull the armature out of the case and remove the felt

washer, thrust plate, and rubber thrust disc from the

case assembly bearing as required.

7.
The field windings are pressed into the gear housing

and further disassembly is not recommended; how-

ever, the field leads may be unsoldered from the

brush holders to remove the case.

8. Clean and inspect all parts.

Inspect both the field and armature for damage

due to overheating such as unsoldered electrical

connections.

Check that brush leads are firmly attached both

to the brushes and their connections at the brush

holders.

Check brushes for wear. If brushes are worn to

within 3/16" of brush lead, or pigtail, they should be

replaced.

Check contacts of circuit breaker shown at top of

Figure 95. Clean as required or file lightly to re-

move irregularities.

Inspect all leads from the brush and circuit

breaker plate for worn insulation or tjreaks.

If it was determined by inspection that brush re-

placement was required, proceed as follows:

a. Remove retainer installed during disassembly and

remove brush springs.

b.
Place a hot soldering iron against*brush lead con-

nection on brush holders, remove old bushes, and

nection on brush holders, remove old brushes,

and install new brushes.

c. To reinstall brushes in holders, compress spring

within holder and hold fully compressed with a

thin instrument inserted through the slot in the

brush holder. Then push brush into holder with

lead upward to project through slot in holder, hold
