I run a shop and use Standard products on a regular basis, and they damn sure ain't what they used to be. Failures NOT uncommon. Yeah, they came out recently with Blue Streak again, supposed to be "better". Keep in mind that Standard offers two series of products, and their lower line is junk...

Marketplace has been a Godsend for me. I've bought everything under the sun off of there ! No way for me to get scammed, I go to seller's house/shop and check out item or I ain't buying. I have no desire to sell on there, though. I've had my son list a couple things for me. Search function works...

I'd like to see the breaker bar/socket combo that could break the crank bolt !

For me, the main issue with the amp gauge is having that high amperage circuit running through the "flimsy" bulkhead connector and then again running a high amperage circuit all through the dash harness. The possibility of gauge failure is of some concern, also. All of these could lead to a...

I was always under the impression that the automatic chute deployment system was not active at the top end.

Would you happen to have the right side engine harness for '74 V8 Du ster that plugs into these connectors ?

That would be good news !

I have prepped a few myself ( remove old vinyl, fill and sand with spray foam) and then had a professional upholstery shop recover them. He charged me $150 last time.

Cloyes of today is absolute Chinese junk. I went through the exact same issue on a 4.0 Jeep engine last year. Finally (after three sets) got a good one (??). They have only gotten worse since then. I own a repair shop and refuse to buy Cloyes products. Was talking to my guy at O'Reilly's the...

Quite an informative and interesting thread, this is. Going to be a very interesting vehicle. The third seat option is definitely the icing on the cake ! I have to admit that upon initially reading your first few posts, I was a little perturbed at the thought of another instance of rare parts...

I remember when +4 first came out, they sold an additive that you could add to Dex 3 to make it compatible for new transmissions. For all the shops that had 55gl drums full of Dex sitting around.

Faced almost the exact same dilema last year. Guy had a '72 Scamp (half a '70 Dart) for sale. Went to check it out and a '74 Duster was blocking it in. Chose the Scamp because we had alot of parts, but four days later went back and bought Duster. Dilema solved !

He just left the old studs in and cut/ground them off. Cleanest way to go.

You obviously don't drive in Michigan much.

Thanks for posting all this.

First thing might be to learn the difference between a bolt and a nut, and how they work.

National Trail Raceway event ??

I will be interested to hear about the trans. Guessing it is at least slick shifted. Maybe face-plated, maybe Liberty ?? What a dream-come-true vehicle !

I just swapped from 9" drum to 10" drum on my son's car, that had brand new lower ball joints. Only difference was 9" used smaller diameter attaching bolts, 1/2" vs 5/8" ( I think) for 10". I just drilled out the ball joint for the bigger bolts. Easy, just make sure you get the bigger bolts when...

If you are referring to 2001 and older Cherokee's, me and you are gonna have to fight !!

Ha-ha, yeah I thought the 20,00 was your lifetime total not current. Was just wondering if Western Colorado had a ****-ton of old Chrysler's laying around as we are headed out that way this summer.

20,000 for sale ads is impressive. Can I ask if you buy parts from FBBO and FABO sites, to resell them ?

Classic Industries sells the hangers for a reasonable price.

Dealer probably can get the parts, but you will possibly find out they are more than an aftermarket compressor. Refrigerant is cheap. My labor charge on that job would be $100 (sedan or convertible 1.1hrs)

This is the piece of trim I am looking for, but on the passenger side. The small curved, corner piece with one screw hole.

To me, the whole reason to go through the hassle and expense of installing a six speed trans would be so I could run a 4.11-4.30 rear gear comfortably.

If you could, put me on the list for one. No hurry. Tried to PM you, but inbox full.

Just a little add on to the discussion, if somebody reading this is experiencing similar issue, it would be very easy to loosen the eight nuts that hold front spring hangers to body and then push entire axle/spring assembly back enough to remove shaft. Just don't stretch flexible brake hose too...

Hey........you just perfectly described my last build !!

Where about in Ohio are you ?
