So I spent some time yesterday going back through the brakes. I got into the drums and disconnected the parking brake cable since it’s not connected to the pedal anyway, just eliminate that potential issue. While in there, I cleaned the pads on the backing plate and lubed them up. Cass suggested...

AJ/FormS Just a few minutes this morning to diagnose but found the brake light wasn't working. I spent some time to get it working then disconnected the parking brake wire from the switch to remove that variable; I don't have an intermediate cable anyway so the pedal isn't doing anything but...

cudamark I'm kind of betting on that also, but I don't want to just throw parts at it.

AJ/FormS, just to make sure I got this: pull the calipers and c-clamp the pistons. Pull the push rods from the wheel cylinders and c-clamp the pistons. Hit the brakes, then process of elimination per your outline. That makes sense. Bewy, same size piston, but good thought and had me digging.

I'll pull the speed bleeders. I literally put them on three days ago so they are not part of the problem, but I hear you. CV lines are not crossed, I've checked multiple times. Also haven't touched the CV except to replace the front drivers hard line from the CV. I've bled the brakes so many...

I've scoured this forum and have done a lot of initial diagnosis based on what I've read, but I'm still dealing with bad brakes, real bad. Here's a breakdown of what I have, and what I've done. '76 Dart Sedan, factory manual brakes, 7 1/4 rear w/ 10" drums. Discs up front that have been...

I'm going to look into the Meter Match. Looks like it's made by Tanks Inc, maybe others, which is funny because my next move was a new tank, sender, and pump from Tanks Inc using one of their reed switch senders. Who knows, maybe I'd still need the meter match. Thanks for that tip @Dana67Dart...

I didn’t have a strap on the original but did have a copper wire going from the fuel line on the sender to an exhaust bracket. I have added another copper line from the same spot on the new pump/sender to another grounding location and no change. Tested the ground by grounding the signal wire to...

That’s interesting, thanks fo sharing that @Dana67Dart . I’m going to pull the sender and check the resistance throughout the arms movement. Since it’s an electric pump I can pump out what’s in it and compare that as well to what the gauge should read when I put it back in. I pretty sure I still...

I checked the original Holley sender and it wasn’t perfectly 10-73 but it was close to it. I figure at 39 ohms I should have slightly more than 1/2 tank. I’ve played with grounds but haven’t run a ground direct to the battery. Instructions don’t call for it but I might as well test it. I...

See, I knew there was something I was missing.

I need some help with my fuel gauge and I'm hoping someone here can point to something I've overlooked. !976 Dart that didn't have a functioning fuel gauge when I bought it. Had zero resistance, pulled the sender and the float wasn't floating. Installed new sender, still nothing so replaced the...

I'm a CFP and do financial and tax planning. Lifestyle is going to drive your ability to retire with that savings rate: debt paid off, lifestyle expenses, idea/vision for retirement, car parts/project. A number of factors to consider and without knowing your specific situation most are guessing...

That's certainly an option, I'm working with what I got. Someday I may move the springs in board and widen the wheels which makes rotation a moot point. But, you are correct.

These were not taken from a great angle but you kind of get the idea. Vision 143, 18x8.5, +32 front, -6 rear.

I'll get some pics tomorrow after I pick it up. I really wanted a square set since I'll be daily driving the '76 but I didn't want a +32 on the back. I went -6 because I thought some extra dish would look good, and I knew I wouldn't need a spacer to pull it off, and I really like the look.

I went with the Vision 143 wheels, 18x8.5 all around, +32 up front, -6 in back. Fronts and rears fit great, might have to roll the rear a touch with 1/4"-3/8" clearance to the fender lip and a '76 Dart sedan. I'm picking it up from alignment tomorrow and I'll know better if I have any issues. I...

@mbaird Can you get us some pictures of how and where the retractors are mounted? I’m working on this now with Steve at SeatBeltPlanet but would love to see a factory setup. Thanks!

Did this sell? @littleredcoffin

I wonder if that could be made to fit a 76. Anyone know how different the 73-74 bumper is from the 75-76?

Good thought Syleng1, 76 Dart, 318.

I have ground clearance issues with the long tube TTI's in my car and I'd like to get rid of those for a set of exhaust manifolds sent to Grand Rapids, MI (the closer the better). Let me know if you have something. Thank you.

I also need a small block 904 inspection cover. You ever get south-ish toward Grand Rapids? I don’t think you’re too far from me.

Definitely still have the project and slowly making headway. It's not in a great location for me to spend a lot of time on it but working to move it to my home shop where I'll be able to get more time on it. as it sits, I just need to do a lot of welding and start in on the tin work. I have...

I was wondering the same actually. I wrote him a couple times for a couple products myself and haven’t heard back. Hope everything is alright.

Let’s do an eBay but it now. Thanks. Will

get me a price shipped to Grand Rapids, MI 49505. Thank you.

Primarily looking for the connecting link between driver and passenger side, but a picture of everything will tell me if it’ll work. Thank you.

Is the wiper linkage still there?

Tried messaging you but your inbox is full. Can you clean it out or send me a message?
