Ive got an 05 Dakota with a 4.7 now - trans just lost 3rd gear but the 4.7 is still good at 155K. I had an 01 Grand Cherokee that had 288K on it when I sold it and it was still running great. That said - 4.7's get lousy mileage Both my full size 5.7 trucks got better mpg with 50% more power to boot.

Ive been storing an OTC branded ex-rental hoist for a buddy for over 20 years. Setup or break down in under a minute with no tools. It and a 440 will fit in the trunk of a 1970 Chrysler Newport. It is pretty sweet

Seems pretty damn definitive that a Hurst Dual Gate Shifter was available for Mopars for '69 anyway

I have been sharpening mower blades for 50 years - never bothered about balancing any of them - never had a problem. There are plenty of things in life that demand precision, mower blades arent one of them

@Demonic

Although most typically seen in GM cars you could buy a "Universal" Dual-Gate shifter for your Mopar back in the day. Makes sense that that is what Hurst would have put in their cars.

If you had any interest in selling them I'd love to buy 'em.

Assuming it's still available I'll take it but your inbox is full Jay

on my 2013 Crewcab the 3rd brake light gasket was the culprit - new gasket solved it

I believe only the 318 was '88 - 360 didn't get the good stuff til '89 Sorry for the sidebar

What keeps them from bending sideways If you were lifting one end of a car?

@Demonic

Unless you have a good local shop I'd be super wary of sending an engine off somewhere to be rebuilt. Maybe consider keeping your original engine stored away and put a crate magnum in its place. Looks like ATK will sell you a 350HP 360 for $4,100.00 ATK HP113 Chrysler 360 Magnum Engine 350HP I...
