Yes, here is a link to what I am talking about. http://www.manciniracing.com/moprearaxshi.html

Yeah I guess it varies with the backspacing on the 275. I was using 4.5 B/S and it rubbed on mine.

That is a pretty good tech read. You can do it by using shims or if you are going to do a relocation kit, you will be cutting off the old perches and welding new ones on. You can set the angle before the final welding.

Thats the one!

I will get to them this week! Its on my to do list!

My buddy Zach came by yesterday and helped me bend up the hard lines for the fuel system. All I need to do now is flare and clamp everything up and she should be ready for fuel again. In return I am rebuilding two of his A-833 trannys. One for his Dart and one for his Uncles Roadrunner. It...

The 8 3/4 rearend will work fine. Looking at those wide rims, I would look at putting in a spring relocation kit so you can run a 275 tire or larger. The max you will get without the relocation is a 245. Ask me how I know! Get a angle finder to verify the pinion angle of the rearend. Now is...

Welcome back buddy! We miss seeing your posts! Now get back to it!

Subscribed! Nice project! Looks like the body is in great shape. Have fun!

I finished all of the 1/2 lines today, removed the old deadhead regulator and got the new return style regulator installed. All that is left to do now is bend and make all the 1/2" fuel hard line and 3/8 return fuel hard lines. I will probably start all of that on Sunday so I will post more...

Thank you and I am glad that my restoration was able to light a fire! Let me know if you need any help or have questions for your build. Yes, I mostly used a DA sander for all the body work and rust removal. Once everything was done I used foam blocks from Eastwood to do the final sanding. I...

Thank you!

Likewise! You have a pretty nice little build yourself! You guys are my motivation! Thanks!

Thank you all, it is good to be back at it! No progress today, I have been helping one of my buddies work on his roadrunner resto. Today we pulled the tranny and I am rebuilding it for him. I will keep you all updated on the progress of mine as I get back to it.

OK I have been told by a few of my A-body Mopar forum friends that I am not on here as much and need to get re-engaged so here we go. I have been busy with work and family so my apologies. One of my buddies from the forums came over today and helped me finish up the fuel cell. Here are some...

I started all the framing and got everything welded up for the fuel cell. It is coming along nicely. Today I plan to start the plumbing! The plan is to run 1/2 tubing from the cell to the carb and to run 3/8 tubing for the return lines. More to follow. Here are some pics.

Sorry for the long silence. We have started workups for deployment again so I have been really busy going on dets and being out to sea. Here are some updates on the Duster. Now that it is Winter around here I have decided to park her and work out the bugs. I am in the process of fixing the...

Took the car in for an alignment today and put about 60 miles on it finally! Enjoy the pics!

Here are a couple pics of the car before we went out on a drive. We went cruising around the neighborhood and actually got 6 miles on it! I am still fighting a carb internal leakage issue, so now it is back in the garage waiting on a new carb as I had to return it for a new one. Enjoy the pics!

Well, the brakes are 100% completed now and she stops on a dime now that we figured out the issue. Realized you cannot use the factory proportioning valve in conjunction with the new one. Had to remove the old, make new brake lines and relocate with the new valve. One of my friends from the...

My I-phone camera sucks so I apologize for the crappy pics lately. I broke out Mommas expensive one so here are a few HD shots for you all! I will take more once the brake bleeding is finished and shes off jacks! Enjoy!

Well, the disc brake conversion is completed! She looks pretty damn nice but still has a big rake in the back. I am hoping since this is all new suspension, that once I start driving it, things will settle. Otherwise, I am very happy. Only thing left now is an alignment and cosmetics! Enjoy...

Well, one side is completed! It turned out pretty nice and everything was pretty easy to install. The car is finally starting to look good. I will post more as I finish things up. Enjoy the pics!

Thank you, I cant wait to start installing it! The kit is made by Right Stuff Detailing. I have dealt with them before and they have very good products. Here is the link for the kit I ordered. http://www.getdiscbrakes.com/mdc66sds

Its been awhile since the last update so here we go. I have been on detachment for the last couple of weeks so I have not had time to tinker. The other half of the disc conversion showed up while I was gone. Here are some pics of everything pre-staged. I have already pulled the front tires...

I received half of the front brake disc conversion today. The calipers, spindles and hardware kit is still on backorder. Here is a pic!

The rear is complete! Here are some pics of the new rims tires and axles installed! The front disc brake kit is finally shipping tomorrow so that is next!

I finally got the rearend back today. Thanks to a great dude from the Mopar forums on here for the help with the rebuild and the 489 case. It turned out awesome! I will put my old 742 case in storage for now until I can get that one built up. Here are some pics. I will get this bad boy...

Front disc are on the way, but backordered. They should be here by the end of the month.

OK so the bumper that I got is not the correct one. It looks like this one is for a 72 Duster even though it says it fits a 71. I gave it back to my buddy and he gave me cash in exchange so it looks like I will be ordering the correct one without the jack slots directly from AMD. More to follow.
