    1968 dart 1 piece carpet

    Wow this is an interesting thread. My 68 dart 2 door sedan also came with a 1 piece carpet. I had always assumed that the 1 piece carpet was original from the factory. And that the aftermarket had always made the carpet in 2 pieces because of shipping costs and it doesn't matter anyway once you...

    Diagnostic tach and mixture gauge

    Fair enough, I can't be sure 100% how accurate they are. I mainly use them for setting idle rpm for a basic tune up and not much else so +/- 50rpm isn't going to kill me. For what it's worth, right out the box both meters have always read exactly the same Better than nothing...

    Diagnostic tach and mixture gauge

    I have a search set on old-school diagnostic tools on Offer-Up but I'm sure you can do the same with Craigslist/Facebook MP/Ebay. I picked up a couple of units for about 10 bucks each. One is really big and you need to set it down on a table or something to work but I like it because the gauge...

    Baby seat in an A-Body?

    When I have to drive around my daughter in my 1999 dodge ram extended cab, I put her car seat in rear facing and I just lift her onto the rear bench and tell her to hop into her seat. It's a game for her and she loves it. Once she's in, I half crawl into the cab to strap her in no issues and...

    Baby seat in an A-Body?

    I've considered this before and the one thing to consider is that A bodies don't have any anchors so that you can secure the top anchor of the seats for forward facing car seats (as was stated above). I don't see why rear facing wouldn't work other than the factor of space. Each car seat varies...

    Flywheel identification

    If its external balance then it narrows it down to LA360 or magnum but can still be truck or car. Count how many teeth it has as well as the diameter, 130 teeth means it was used in a car and 10.5" diameter (and what most car bellhousings will accept) while the trucks used 143 teeth and will be...

    Small question about disc brake swaps

    Picture of said height difference I got it from this article from motor trend that goes into more detail https://www.motortrend.com/how-to/mopp-0503-swapping-a-and-b-disc-brake-spindles/

    Small question about disc brake swaps

    Yes/no 1972 and earlier you can get sbp A body disk brakes (4 piston calipers) that would go with the small ball joint upper control arm. 1973 and later A body uses the large ball joint and lbp disks. While you can physically bolt in the B/E body stuff, the knuckles are a slightly different...

    POL Front sway bar install

    POL Front sway bar install

    I will see if I can find pictures of that online. My k has 2 holes that are not being used so those might be the factory locations of the bracket that you're talking about. But I don't see any 3rd hole anywhere. This bar is 44.5" center to center of the ends. I'm fairly certain that is wider...

    POL Front sway bar install

    Just did a quick full mockup and as it sits, there is about 1/8th clearance from the bottom of the sway bar to the top of the radiator support bracket How important is that support bracket?

    POL Front sway bar install

    I agree with you. It looks terrible. I just did a 'visual' check and with the bar way up here, it looks like it would clear the rad support bracket but if I were to mount it under the rad then there will likely be a clearance issue because the sway doesn't have the hump in the middle do you...

    POL Front sway bar install

    Has anyone tried installing one of these front sway bars? I got it in a pile of parts I bought that consisted of the entire front end components of a 71 dart (they were swapping everything to coilovers and rack and pinion) I was welding up the k member from that car to prepare it for my dart and...

    Not an A body but I trust your opinion

    Quick backstory. I was thinking about getting an aftermarket roof rack for my daily driver 2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee and I noticed some of the bolts that hold my stock roof rails onto my roof were completely rusted. I was able to extract all of them without damaging the roof nutserts and I have...

    What about this thermostat housing? Can it be saved?

    I would be a lot more worried about the inside of the housing to see if any spots are getting thin and where the gasket sits against the engine. As stated above, the lip does more work than anything. And if you're still worried then add some jb weld and sand it smooth

    NOT MINE Junkyard A-bodies in Southern California

    I won't have time for a couple weeks to check these out so I don't expect much to be left when I get there but I am just hoping to cut some good floor boards out so I should be good. I just want to give the heads up in case anyone needs parts off these because they both look to have a lot of...

    MASTER CYLINDER ??

    In my case it's just personal preference. My power brakes are "squishy" (although really strong) and I am just not a fan of how they feel. I want a more positive feedback through the pedal. Nothing is "wrong" with my booster or power brakes in general. Along the same lines, I am not a fan of how...

    [WANTED] 360 magnum, need intermediate shaft

    Not sure what part of California that you're located but if you're southern California, I Pull you Pull in pomona (I think they also have Fresno and other locations) is VERY reasonable with their prices. LKQ seems to be setting their prices in competition with the dealer sometimes

    383/727 Value

    For what it is worth, during covid when the world was shut down, I almost went to go buy a "built" 383 (no proof or documentation but it looked freshly painted) for $600 so I assumed it would at least just be a core. It sold almost immediately and popped up a week later with someone else trying...

    383/727 Value

    Not sure how much this will help you but it's tough out there right now. I've had a 440 hp core with fully forged internals for sale for a while now at what I thought was a giveaway price and I opened it up so that the whole thing could be inspected and all I have gotten is people offering scrap...

    How much would you pay for this 340?

    What I mean to say is that some people think that x heads will automatically be capable of 600hp right out the box when in reality many are pretty darn close to j heads. If you pay 2x-3x for X heads and need to get them rebuilt anyway, you would be in the same spot getting some J heads and...
