I have a power steering 318 73 duster with a Grant steering wheel. The problem I am having is the steering wheel (and obviously the shaft it's bolted to) will move in and out slightly. It will stop when you try to pull on it and leaves like 1/8th in between steering wheel back plate and column...

I have a 73 Duster and I just put on brand new Cragars with BFG's. Got a lifetime alignment at Firestone and they got it all aligned minus the passenger side camber. They showed me under the car where they were bottomed out on the lobe but it was still cambered top side in .9 degrees so the...

So I am having problems with my Duster dying due to fuel issues (another whole topic on here) but the bigger problem is when I can't get it started at a light because the neutral safety switch wont "engage" after going from park to neutral and wiggling the shifter around (on my 727) I can...

Hey guys so I'm having some fuel issues, at least that's what it seams like by the way it dies. Definitely not electrical. So the car will run fine in park or neutral but in drive after driving a little while it would die if you weren't moving and in gear. It drives just fine if you were...

So I have a 73 Duster with a built 318 and a 8 ¾ 3.55 posi rear end. I cruise at 3000 at 60mph and the SOB gets 9.6mpg when I am really nice to it. haha so I need an overdrive. besides 5k for a Tremec what is the cheapest and best route to go without making new supports and totally reworking the...

So kinda random probably stupid question but I have rebuilt my whole duster brake system (master cylinders, wheel cylinders, new drum springs and shoes and new pads, NO NEW calipers YET) and I finally bled all the air out of the system to the point where it brakes good now, pedal is firm...

Hey guys so I have an electrical problem that has resurfaced. the duster will crank all day long but wont start. drove it into garage just fine and now nope it's dead. I have done a ton of research and had a lot of electrician guys help me with no luck. I have: Replaced the ECU twice to make...

Hey guys so I love my duster and the 318 has some get up and go but the cost of the horsepower I put into it is about 10 mpg. I have a 727 in it right now and am considering putting in a 727 with an overdrive for fuel economy. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TorqueFlite this would mean the a518...

Okay so I have a 1973 Duster that had a 7 1/4 rear end that measured 51.4 inches outside flange to outside flange. I found an A body 8 3/4 housing on craigslist then found an A body 8 3/4 3.55 posi center section and A-body 8 3/4 axles. I bought them both and put them together. (this was before...

I have a 73 Plymouth Duster that I have restored. It purred like a kitten until 1 week ago. It will only start when I let up on the key into the run position IF I get it on the right stroke. Sometimes it takes a few hits but it WILL NOT START in the "start position." I replaced the ballast...
