    Parts for sunroof

    Thanks 340duster. Now I understand that the felt seal is glued to the existing U channel molding so that is what I will do. My U channel appears to be in acceptable condition for this. My U channel molding on the headliner is ok also.

    Parts for sunroof

    Enclosed is a picture of the seals. The one on the right is the original which is a combination of the felt round tube seal molded to a U channel. The one in the middle is Kelly's round tube felt seal. The one on the left is the typical U channel molding which is probably too short in height...

    Parts for sunroof

    I also ordered the felt seals from Mr. Kelly an.d received them. Comparing with the original design, it looks like I need to obtain some new U-shaped plastic molding, sandwich the felt seal in-between, and then push this up into the panel edge. Does anyone know which brand and size of U-shape...

    Ordered Classic Auto Air for under hood

    340doc: I removed the evaporator on this car to pressure test it with air in a water bucket; no visible bubbles. Installed it and it leaked R134a pretty quickly. On my 1974 Satellite, original owner, the evaporator started leaking in 1984 and had to be replaced.

    73 duster ac service manual .

    If your car was originally an A/C car, as my 74 Dart Sport, I would recommend the Classic Air underhood kit and also replace the original evaporator as it will leak. See my posts in July 2013.

    A/C Compressor needed

    If your evaporator is original I would suggest you replace it as it will probably leak (as mine did). Ebay has them. See my posts on my retrofit with Classic Air. On my 1974 Plymouth Satellite (purchased new), the evaporator started leaking after 10 years.

    AC/Heater Box R&R in a 74 Dart

    Yes, you will need to depressurize the A/C system and then disconnect the 2 aluminum tubing fittings for the evaporator on the firewall in the engine compartment. You will need to remove the A/C outlet vents assembly (2 screws on the bottom). You will need to remove the glovebox liner to...

    Classic Auto Air- Opinions- Experience- Feedback

    My Classic Auto engine compartment kit has been fine, see my post back in July 2013. This was for an original factory air car (74 dart sport) and I should have replaced the original evaporator as it eventually leaked.

    72 Duster A/C evaporator

    You need to remove the glovebox liner to gain access to the upper bolting and other items on top of the evaporator box; was not necessary on mine to remove the glovebox door as liner collapses. Need to unscrew the drain tube and disconnect the vacuum hoses on the side. Need to remove the bolt...

    72 Duster A/C evaporator

    I went through this a year ago on my 74 Dart Sport. I removed heater box to remove the evaporator to pressure test with water and it looked ok. It actually leaked after putting in the R-134a to the system so my advice is to go ahead and buy a new one on Ebay.

    1974 Dart Sport 489 Differential Question

    Sgbarracuda: I am not sure the brake drums were drilled (or just replaced) but my memory says there is a 5 hole drilled spacer plate between the drum and axle (I would have to remove a wheel to confirm).

    See my photos post in July 2013 on updating my 74 Dart Sport with the engine compartment kit from Classic Air if you don't care about the originality of the V2 compressor.

    1974 Dart Sport 489 Differential Question

    Thanks everyone for the info. Yes the axles are the big bolt pattern as have the original Rallye wheels with largeacorn center caps. I did find a receipt where the axle stud plates were welded up and re-drilled by Moser in 1993 so I assume the axles are not original. I have a lot of receipts...

    1974 Dart Sport 489 Differential Question

    Hello, my Hang 10 purchased used came with the dealer sticker and originally was a 318 with a 3.23 axle ratio. It now has a 360 and a 8.75 489 differential case. According to my factory manual, 1974 Darts did not have the 8.75 available so my question is: Is my 8.75 489 case a retrofit or...

    A904 transmission extension rear bushing orientation

    Can anyone tell me the exact location of the oiling hole in the rear extension bushing. My worn one was found to be with the hole on the top slot which to me did not look correct. There is a slot in the 5 o'clock position as viewed from the rear and I think that is where the hole should line...

    Dart Sport Classic Auto Air A/C retrofit

    Well an update. Compressor was not coming on so hooked up pressure gauges and suction pressure very low. Injected a can of R134a with the fluorescent dye to try to find leaks with a black light. Nothing shows up in the new parts so check the evaporator drain which looks oily. Disconnect the...
