1971 340 duster hood pin location

i found my original ones off my 71 duster u are correct i thought they were longer wen i bought them and i have seen the 23 inch lanyards on duster b4 and thought they looked too long and not right but here is a pic of my original and the new... original 13 inches repo 23 inches and about twice as thick... i dont know maybe i'll switch em' for shorter if it looks stupid


Hey Ryan,

My original lanyards (still in a box) were shorter also, not sure of the exact length, I'd have to go dig them up to measure them (I'm thinking around 17").

I ended up replacing them with the 23" kit, which everyone says is the correct length for A bodies, as I figured one of the previous owners might have swapped them for aftermarket ones. But I have since talked to both the previous owners and they don't recall ever changing those.

I find the 23" too long.
Anyone else run into this issue?

The pin placement = WHAT ADAM SAID! http://s203.photobucket.com/albums/aa59/340butterduster/?action=view&current=P4100016.jpg

All the best!
