    What Are You Doing To/With Your Car Today?

    I put my new wheels/tires on the front today. These will be my Day 2/track tires. I couldn’t get it out for better pictures because of a snow storm yesterday, but I had to get an idea of how it was gonna look.

    WTF Front Brakes?!?

    Here's a pic of the caliper. KH86166 is the casting number and they were used on 70-72 B bodies and 70-74 E bodies.

    What black Friday deals did you score?

    I didn't buy them on Black Friday but that's when they showed up. I used a 10% off coupon from Summit to buy some new tires for the Duster. These will be my Day 2/track tires for when I get tired of running my rallye wheels.

    WTF Front Brakes?!?

    Thanks for the replies everyone. I've been driving the car this way for coming up on two years and even my alignment guy didn't notice anything so I don't feel too bad. The rest of the car was "restored" back in the 90's and I haven't found anything else that was cobbled up, so I'm fairly...

    WTF Front Brakes?!?

    The car was aligned last year by an A body Mopar guy. He didn’t have any problems aligning it using the skoosh chart that’s been floating around for years.

    WTF Front Brakes?!?

    Thanks guys. I was hoping that it was a FMJ swap but can't find any pictures. Sounds like I'm gonna have to take everything apart and measure carefully. I don't need brakes right now, so it's not a big rush. Any reason to be concerned about the welded upper control arms? They appear to be in...

    WTF Front Brakes?!?

    I pulled off my front wheels today to take a look at my upper control arms. In a different thread, a member had noticed that my upper control arms had welds on them and I thought I'd better investigate. A previous owner had converted to BBP discs but I'm not sure what brakes they used to convert...

    My search for a shorty D100 is over

    Keep your eyes out for a decent mid to late 70's short bed around the area. I've decided that I'm going to drive a nice older truck around in retirement. Something not complicated by modern technology and can haul a sofa if needed. Congrats to the original poster on his "new" truck.

    [WANTED] A Body mopar performance subframe connectors

    For those of us that don't have metal fab skills, I bought these Competition Engineering connectors. They seem to be the same as the old Direct Connection ones that I bought from the dealership back in the day. Edit: Yes, they will be welded in place. https://www.summitracing.com/parts/CEE-3115

    Went to MCACN show yesterday - Pics of race cars.

    My buddy won an award for his Mr. Norm's Demon. He sent pics of lots of cool cars, but the barn find cars were the ones I thought were the best. We're looking into going next year!

    pitman arm puller

    My buddy put a slit in mine with a cut off wheel and knocked it off with a hammer. I was still on my way to O'Reilly's when I got the call that the puller wasn't needed.

    Espo Springs?

    I honestly don't know? I didn't build the car so I don't know everything that was done to it prior to my ownership. I'm putting new wheels and tires on the front this weekend and I'll check it out then. Thanks for the catch!

    Next Phase of my Mopar Life

    Not sure that the 318 would spin them. Besides, I’m still breaking in the clutch. That’s my story and I’m sticking to it.

    Next Phase of my Mopar Life

    I found a set of custom wheels for sale on Marketplace. They are 15x9 with 4" backspace. They came with a pair of worn out P275/60R15 drag radials on them, so of course I had to bolt them on to see how they looked. So far, I'm digging them. I've got new tires coming for the front and am...

    PDR on Old Metal?

    Glue pulling has it's proper place. Pulling on 50+ year old paint isn't one of them. :lol:

    PDR on Old Metal?

    I agree with everything junkyardhero said. I've been doing PDR at a Lexus dealership for over 20 years and 30 years total. Every dealer has a PDR guy, but I would stick to the high line dealers. Also detail companies and body shops would be good places for leads. Access to the back of the dent...

    Kick Panels with Speaker Holes?

    I used some angled mounts that I bought off of eBay. It allowed me to put a good quality 6 1/2" speaker in my kick panels. https://www.amazon.com/Universal-Angled-Beveled-Extender-Speakers/dp/B0CJ5RLWDH?tag=fabo03-20

    Replaced fuel line and added electric fuel pump, now won't start.

    @Bl1zzard hope these guys get you going again. What electric pump did you go with? I'm going to have to switch over this winter.

    What Are You Doing To/With Your Car Today?

    I stuck a set of 15X9 wheels on the back of my Duster yesterday. I'm going to paint them black over the winter. I will run some skinny tires on 15X5 ETs slots on the front. Going for a Day 2 look for my "track tires".

    Post your wheel and tire combos.
