    Maine Mopars?

    Howdy from Hudson, Maine, about 15 minutes northwest of Bangor. Good to see so many Mainers on here.

    Odd vibration at speed... any ideas what it could be?

    Thanks for the reply. I'm not 110% positive it's coming from the front, but I definitely don't feel any vibration from behind or below like I've experienced with u-joints in the past with other vehicles. The wheel bearing crossed my mind, but I guess I assumed that it would be something...

    Odd vibration at speed... any ideas what it could be?

    Hey Guys, The last few times I've had my bone-stock 75 Swinger on the highway, cruising over 65, there is a slow pulse-like vibration that I feel in the front end and steering wheel. It's about the speed of a slow heartbeat, but each pulse is a series of very fast vibrations. It's not a violent...

    highway vibration

    Sounds crazy, but have you checked your motor mounts? That sounds serious, and if you get a vibration at 3,000 rpm while in park, that makes me wonder... and it still doesn't rule out the torque converter if I understand it correctly. I'd find and fix the problem before I took it back on the...

    Calibrating a Speedometer - can it be done?

    My 75 Dart's speedometer is off by 5-15 mph depending on where it is in the speed arc and I got to wondering if there is a way to calibrate it to be more accurate. Any thoughts? Thanks!

    Slant six exhaust

    Not to hijack, but how about with a stock 1 7/8" exhaust? Just got my 75 Dart and it needs a muffler but I am not financially able to spring for an upgraded exhaust just yet.

    75 Dart - Stock Muffler O.D. and I.D. measurements? 225/6

    Hey Guys - I knew the muffler was the first thing that I would need to replace on my new Dart, I just didn't know how soon. Last night on the way home the muffler let go and I'm looking for a low budget quick fix until I save up to change the whole exhaust system. I'm thinking of throwing a...

    5 mph bumpers: Replace with something different/older?

    Yeah, getting metal drilled out of my eye is an experience I don't want to repeat. Ever. I've got safety glasses everywhere.

    5 mph bumpers: Replace with something different/older?

    That looks really good. Thanks everyone for sharing responses and pics. I'm leaning towards a way to do this without cutting the bumpers. The welding doesn't scare me, the cost of new chrome does and they are too nice to paint right now. I like the first suggestion, but until I get the plastic...
