    Power steering

    Of course you need the P.S. gear box. Look for a later model gear box as they are all the same and the later boxes will be Chrysler firm feel. The P.S. steering column is shorter with the components of the column being different from the manual steering shaft. You'll also have to procure the...

    this is the 5th year for the show. it is sponsored by Citrus Chrysler and draws more Mopars every year. They've had to move because of more cars showing up every year. The new venue is uptown and has much more attractions close by. It is close to downtown Inverness where many old shops &...

    Adding AC to Duster

    67Dart273 is right. The passenger side firewall is stamped totally different for an a/c car. Chrysler dealers installed an add-on air unit that fit below the dash. Nothing like the assembly line unit. Even the aftermarket air units will fit nice but you'll have holes left over.

    I didn't go through all the post but for an update. Mopar Muscle has installed the 5 spd into a Dart. Paula drives it on the street often. she seems to love it.

    Newbie here starting my 1st A body and need a/c help

    It isn't usually fun. Remove the passenger seat firsthand and console if you have one. You'll have a few nuts to remove out in the engine bay and usually a strap accessible by removing the glove box liner. Of course you'll have to remove all the pertinent hoses at firewall. There will be a long...

    Timing...what should I run

    and when you get done and plan on driving it on the street don't forget to plug the vacuum advance back up. It hurts nothing. it will help engine burn cleaner and may get mpg when hooked up. The no vacuum is a drag racing thing. Hook it up. It drops out as soon as you get into the throttle.

    Newbie here starting my 1st A body and need a/c help

    oh I forgot. Classic can redo your hard lines. They can either recoat the finish on your lines or make you new ones from your lines, They do have many lines in stock to make yours from or send them your lines to make copies from. Mark showed me their stock of lines. I was just there 2 weeks ago...

    Newbie here starting my 1st A body and need a/c help

    Mikey, I don't remember part #'s sorry. Check with Classic Auto Air or Bouchilon about the brackets. The "shorty' compressor is #7312 as stated above. You probably won't need this compressor unless you're going 6 bbl. The normal Sanden compressor you see all over eBay should work. Watch for 12v...

    A/C Heater box interchange question.

    It should fit if your going heater/ac to heater/ac box. If your trying to add a/c it won't work as the firewall is stamped and drilled totally different with just heat.

    troubleshooting oil pressure

    I had a low pressure problem on prelubing my 340. It was the brass ring(name escapes me) on the oil line to gauge. It collapsed wrong and pinched off the line. I could hear the drill pull down but had no pressure at mechanical gauge. Easy fix.

    64 dart brake/suspension upgrade

    Stay 100% Mopar. Use the '73-up A body spindles and brake hardware. The only problem you would have is if you had the early A body front sway bar. In which you would swap your spindles from one side to the other. You will here plenty of people groan about swapping the spindles from side to side...

    73 Dart Rear End Swap

    If you babied it like roll out at idle before easing into the throttle you probably would be surprise how long it would last. If you got out on road and romped on it expect to call a tow truck or your buddy with a trailer.

    help electrical problem!

    check your sockets & bulbs again. You're getting feedback. .

    Newbie here starting my 1st A body and need a/c help

    Classic Auto Air has been around a while. They are as good as you can get. The techs will walk you through what you need help on. my suggestion is, if you're under restoration, is to seal/weld up all holes and start fresh. Their kit will not use the same holes. This is common in all aftermarket...

    help electrical problem!

    also make sure the brass "buttons" inside the sockets are setting correct. They have to be clocked right so bulbs don't set across the buttons and send power backwards through wiring. If a bulb is burnt out the filament can lay back across the good filament and cause problems as well.

    Heater core

    It'll take care of it's self. Just check radiator a couple times. OH yeah, make sure your temperature is set to hot so coolant will run through core.

    Mopar official Fog Lights (as seen on Hang Ten Dart Sport)

    use a relay out by your battery and you'll have a low voltage electrical wire to the relay. They sell the relays at any parts start and usually with instructions.

    Need help re front suspension question

    I don't know where this pic came from but those bolts and nuts are going the wrong way. You will notice the bolts have thin heads. They are made to fit from the spindle side out to the ball joint with attaching nuts.

    Mopar official Fog Lights (as seen on Hang Ten Dart Sport)

    Yes, I need to check up with Greg. This spoiler is considered an A body spoiler not just a Duster. Now to be honest, this spoiler was made for an early A body without the required 5 mph bumpers of the later Darts & Dusters. I've not really tackled the fitment issue on my '74 Duster. I'll get...

    Mopar official Fog Lights (as seen on Hang Ten Dart Sport)

    Years ago I probably bought the last 2 frt spoilers in Chrysler inventory. I had a very good parts gal that kept me informed of discontinued parts. :) I sold 1 and kept 1. I never got it installed on my Duster. A friend borrowed it from me and says he is going to get this spoiler reproduced. I...

    quick question on over flow tank?

    Y-1 use to have these coolant recovery tanks, not anymore. If working right they do return the coolant back to the radiator. That's what they are for. You don't FILL the tank but fill it up to the line on the tank and it will maintain the coolant in radiator. Used first on a/c cars. You might...

    RV2 to Sanden conversion?

    Sanden 7312(Jap made) or 4456 (USA made) shorty compressor. Same compressor. Most a/c shops don't now about this. Classic Auto Air does. I uses 4456 and Bouchillon bracket on my 360 6 bbl. Works great. The only bracket/compressor to work with six pack. I tried every Chrysler s.b. set up made. I...
