I have a set of mustang rotors that I machined to fit my KH 10" setup on my 68 dart GT vert. I have come across conflicting information regarding the seal. The original seal is 1.730 ID and 2.340 OD and this is what I machined the mustang rotor OD to. I've read here that someone used a seal...

I'm curious if the federal 1.06 pump is the right pump for my dart gt? Is there an explanation as to why there are two pumps used? The Saginaw is called the .94 and the federal is called the 1.06??? Is one "better" than the other?

I'd like to rebuild the PS box for my 68 dart GT vert and didn't find anything in the tech articles. Anyone know of a source? YouTube sucks in this regard.

I got a set of mustang/raybestos disk for my 68 dart GT vert. Is there any value in the original KH disks or do I scrap them? I will hold on to them for measurement purposes but, once I'm done with the machining, I'll have no use for them. Thanks

I've beefed up the seam welds of my K frame. I also read about folks that have added gussets etc to the steering box mount. The steering box mount on my K frame has, what appear to be, the biggest and strongest welds of the whole K frame. Is it still worth adding gussets? I do plan on adding...

I figure the puny ball joints in my dart is the weakest part of the front suspension but got a hair and figured I'd make the LCAs a little stronger. Just some 1/16" plate punched and ready for welding.

I'm about to install the prothane front sway bar bushings and thought about drilling the bracket for zerks? I can't see how the grease would make it between the bracket and bushing but thought it might be worth asking about? Thanks

I'm rebuilding a set of 4 piston KH disk brake calipers. I'm looking for advice on how the tight bends are made in the lines for these calipers. I'm also wondering if all the lines get the spiral "spring" protection added to them or just the ones from the brake hose connection. Thanks

Anyone know the minimum thickness? These are for a 68 dart gt. Thanks

I'm wondering if others have these flat stamped steel rings bolted to one bolt on the front sway bar cage? Are these for shipping/delivery and should I pitch them in the trash? Thanks

I may have damaged the brass tube seat in one or more of the KH calipers I'm rebuilding. I bottomed out some 3/8-28 bolts I was using to plug the inlet while pumping grease to remove stuck pistons. Anyone ever replaced one these? I'm pretty sure replacement seats are available but figured I'd...

I'm wondering if anyone has hydro dipped? I'm wanting to dip all of my blasted front suspension components in rustoleum enamel (not spray paint) .What little I've read is that the paint sinks when being poured into the water?

I am starting (finally) to work on my 68 Dart GT convertible. I am pretty sure that I will be going with some sort of aftermarket wheels when the time comes. I understand there are not very many SBP aftermarket wheels available so I got to wondering if I could simply get a set of rotors to...

I also posted in the suspension forum yesterday and I have photos there as well. I am looking to put a PS box on my 65 Dart. I have two pump styles and the box as well as pulleys that are needed. My problem is figuring out the brackets. I have a load of different brackets however I have nothing...

I am going to start working on putting PS on my 65 slant six dart. I have both style pumps available and a large number of brackets. My problem is I have zero idea how to put the pumps with the brackets that I have. I will try and post photos from my phone so if anyone might be able to help I'd...

Been a while since I've been here. I tried looking for an answer prior to posting but didn't find anything. I have a 1965 4-dr Dart sitting for a few years. I also have a 1992 Dakota with the 318. My son has been driving it but it has 250+k miles and is about ready for the farm. I am thinking...

I would like to fabricate a new instrument cluster using autometer gauges an am having trouble determining if my original automatic trans cable will plug into the mechanical speedometer from Autometer? Thanks Howard Hampstead, NC

I have a 65 Dart with a slant 6 and cable operated column shift. I want to put a floor shifter in it and have a cable floor shift setup and a floor shift steering column but I also have a nice 904 that uses a normal, non trunion style rear section. I want to fix this car up as $ allows for my...

I have finally located the power steering pump I can use. My question is regarding the style of fitting for the pressure line to the pump. I thought it would be a double flare fitting but it is a double "O" ring style. Does anyone know what I should ask for at Napa for replacing these? I asked...

I should have gotten clear on this but I am going from manual column shift to a power/console in my 65 Dart. I have read a lot of posts about conversions but still am unsure about mine. It is not a collapsible column. Do I need to lengthen the shaft or make it shorter? Are the ends for both...

I am cleaning some parts in anticipation of converting my 65 Dart to PS. I have had 2 pumps for a couple of years. They both have the round filler neck (Federal?) but they are not the same internally. One is an early version such as an original 65 and the other is a later version that matches...

I have been putting up with this too long. The flange for the head pipe to the exhaust manifold on my dart is pissing me off now. It is a 65 with a super six and the flange has not been flush with the manifold since I had the exhaust dozen years ago. Every 3 months or so the damn ticking noise...

Anyone know a way to tighten loose sun visors? I have a 1970 Chrysler 300 convertible and the sun visors are so loose they flop down. Thanks-Howard

I had the top replaced well over a year ago on a 1970 300. The car went directly into the garage with the top down. I wanted to do several things to the car and have completed them however the top seem way too tight. I cannot latch it and have found that the the installer broke one of the latch...

I need a gas cap for a 65 Dart sedan. I know Stant had one out that was chrome but I cannot find one. I could easily paint a chrome one so I would be open to purchasing one of these. Thanks-Howard Hampstead, NC

My 300 is together and running fine but there are a few trouble spots. The FSM has a lot of errors in the wiring diagram and I cannot figure out why the power windows are not operating. They worked prior to pulling the dash out. The is a window safety switch that is on the fuse block and I...

I am looking for a power window switch for my 1970 Chrysler 300. I need one of the single switches not the 4-switch that goes on the drivers door. Any sources? Thanks-Howard

I have recently restored the entire dash on my 1970 300 convertible. It is an original car with 55K miles. I took out the whole thing and had the pleasure of discovering I routed the harness in wrong so I had to take the instrument cluster out to get it in the right position. I started the car...

I have a very noticeable vibration in my 65 Dart at low speed. From 0 to maybe 15 mph I can really feel it and I am wondering if it could be from a bad vibration damper? I don't use this car much but I purchased a NOS damper many months ago because I could see that the one on the engine (1977...

I am going to get the interior done on my 4-dr slant Dart. I have seats from a Sebring convertible which provide shoulder belts. Should I get these recovered or is there a company that I can get seats from that would provide shoulder belts? For the rest of the interior I am going to go with...
