    Odd Power Steering Pump?

    So I ordered a Cardone 276542 off RockAuto, supposedly supposed to fit a ‘74 along with a ton of other Mopar vehicles. It does NOT look like any Mopar box I've ever seen. I was wondering if anyone else has seen this style box? I'm worried if it even fits an A-body! Any Mopar people have...

    Floor brackets under AC vents?

    I have these two factory-looking brackets on the Dart located on the hump under the plastic AC manifold. The PO screwed a tach into one of them. What are these for? There's no other brackets or hole for a floor shifter.

    Proforged Steering Arms?

    I searched a few different ways and was surprised I couldn't find anything about them... The idler arm and power steering seal needs replacing on the Special Sauce Dart and was considering these arms. Who's used them? Any feedback?
