All it requires is 11” backing plates and strut bar off a big car. If I remember right a lot of C bodies have them, and pretty much all B150 vans.

Success!! I ran 12 volts to the ground and red wire. The motor fired up and although it wasn’t able to raise the top by itself we were able to help it along. I could see some fluid moving through the lines but mostly air. It got tough as we got close, but after a few tries we were able to...

Thank you brother…

So I went back out to the field, and there is no way for me to get the pins out with the top being partially raised. I found the top motor wiring harness under the seat, and unplugged it. I’m charging a spare battery to take there to try to get the top to raise itself. Does anyone know if up...

Steve Steve, thanks so much for that pic. The only difference I see is that my ram is completely vertical, and the top is hidden behind that channel. Just knowing there's a cotter pin in there helps. Maybe I can get a cotter pin removal hook type tool in there. I may also try hooking up a 12...

I’m starting to work on a 67 that’s been outside for a couple years. It’s gonna be a bit before I can get it inside. I thought if I disconnected the rams I could raise the top manually to help keep some water out, but I don’t see anywhere to disconnect them. Can anyone point me in the right...

For sale today fellers is an original 340 electronic small block distributor. It’s complete, and the shaft is tight and spins as it should. I’ll take $39 bucks for it, and I’ll pick up the shipping anywhere east of the Mississippi River. West of there add $5. Alaska and Hawaii are off the...

I bought a set of repro center caps for my road wheels off ebay. Is there anything I can do to keep them from pitting prematurely? They look great, but the quality of this stuff isn't what it was at one time. Would a layer of turtle wax help to keep them from rusting or pitting for the next...

Thanks so much for sharing everybody. My fears are alleviated. On the question about carrying 2 spares, I would just carry one skinny steelie that is about the same height of the rear tire. That way it can go on the front with no problem, as well as the rear so the diff doesn't think I'm...

I’m curious if anyone ever ran 14” wheels on the front and 15’s on the back. If so, did it look okay, or did it look like something was amiss? I’m starting to put my 68 Barracuda together. It has a stock 8 3/4 and I have a really nice KH brake setup for the front. I have 14” rally wheels for...

Wow, that’s great information. Thank you…

Thanks so much brother, I would never have thought of that.

Can anyone tell me why this condenser was mounted on the outside of the distributor? I always thought they sat adjacent to the points under the cap. I’m pulling a 68 barracuda out of storage after 42 years, and I can’t tell you how nice it is to see a car that needs everything, but isn’t...

thanks brother....

Can anyone tell me if the driveshaft is the same length whether you are using an 8 1/4 or 8 3/4 rear axle. If not, what's the difference in measurement? Thanks.....

This seat is in great shape considering its 55 years old. The springs and the backing plate are in great shape. These are getting very tough to find. The build tag is still there, and I think it reads 1-4-67 but I can't see real well. It weighs 68 lbs. and the dimensions are 49x27x21. Message...

This seat is in great shape considering its 56 years old. The springs and the backing plate are in great shape. No ripped seams that I can see, but it could use a good cleaning and conditioning. It's dry from sitting in the rafters of the garage. It comes with the boot cover which is affixed...

Decent shape, covers all 1975 models. $20 plus $10 toward shipping anywhere in the lower 48 states. These things contain a wealth of technical information. thanks guys....

Plymouth 65 hit it on the head. The right side mount needs a spacer on the rearward ear to fit correctly. A few washers and I'm good to go. As a sidebar Rockauto shows the same mount for the 318. 340, and 360 for a 73 up Dart. The narrower drivers side ear on the 318 is widely documented on...

Does anyone happen to have a picture of how their spool mounts fit the ears on the block? I switched from a 68 to a 74 K frame, bought Anchor 2325 and 2326 mounts with brackets, but they don't seem to want to fit my 73 340 block, not without bending them anyway. I appreciate any help guys.

Crap...its all rusty...

I've read about oil in the cylinders and priming the oil pump, but I have a couple other questions. This 340 wasn't stored well. In looking at the oil filter mount in pic #1, does this look like the previous owner used a 90 deg adapter. I know he used headers. If so what do I need to do to...

My car came as a roller, so I've been chasing a lot of miscellaneous items. I ordered a new U joint strap and bolt kit for my rear (7260), which is an 8.25 out of a 74 or so Duster. I want to chase the threads on the yoke while waiting for the kit to arrive. Can anyone tell me what size the...

you got it, the bullet ones are for upper control arms, and the rectangle ones with a ridge are for lower control arms. Rockauto also has pinion snubbers for the rear end under that same bump stop category.

Your inbox is full bro, can't contact you...trying to get with you on a separate issue. Please pm me when you delete some messages and free up space. thanks...

Thanks so much for the help guys...

I was thinking 73 to maybe 76 Duster, but I'm not sure. Also why is there an electrical connector underneath them....its looks like a ground of some sort to me. Appreciate any help. BTW, my God seat covers have gotten expensive. I saw $850 on ebay just for the fronts with no foam (Legendary)

Sorry man I tried to find the answer on this in previous threads and came up empty. I pulled the manual 9 inch drums off the front and rear of my 67, and I'm going with 11" drums in the rear on an 8.25 and 11.75" disks in the front. I also have the correct prop valve off a disk car. I assume...

Cleaning out and found a set of 7/16 -20 McGard Tough Locks. Still sealed in the package, although it's beat up. These would be for mags, not rallyes. Part #22142. $15 plus $10 priority mail shipping. Keep in mind I may have to cut the box to fit in a flat rate priority box.
