73 duster with a 318. Like the title says the radio turns off for 3 seconds every time i hit the blinker. I found the problem, just thought id' put this up here if anyone else is experiencing the same thing. I just put up with it for a while because I didn't want to chase down electrical...

Hi all, I've been trying to time my 318 after I put on a new carb and intake but I think that the balancer has slipped or something because I can't even see the timing mark with my gun. I've seen some information about timing an engine with a vacuum gauge on the internet so I gave it a try...

Hello, Looking for some help from you guys. I installed a new distributor in my 73 duster 318. I'm getting spark now which was the original problem, but it still won't start. The sketchiest thing is that it periodically makes a grinding/screeching noise when i'm turning it over. Whatever...

Hey everyone, i'm trying to figure out a no spark problem i have. If I were to ground the ignition coil wire that leads to the distributor should I expect it to spark kind of like testing a spark plug?

Hey everyone, I'm chasing a no spark problem and I could use a little advice. 1973 duster with a 67 318. Factory electronic ignition. I was moving it a few days ago to make way for my tenet's project and it kept dying when I reved it. I could re-start it and idle down the alley but that...

Hey all, The other day i was working on my throttle and I looked up under the dash. I saw a disconnected wire. It was clear where it was supposed to go so I re-connected it. Got the thing started a few weeks later and turns out I re-connected the super obnoxious "door is open" alarm. Now I...

Hello, I'm trying to install a street demon carb on my 68 318 which is installed in a 73 duster. I am replacing the thrashed quadrajet that the last owner put on. I think that it has the original 2bbl bracket that was working for some reason, because now when I try to set up the throttle it...

I stumbled across this on youtube. Its a way to hone/debur the inside of castings with an abrasive fluid. Trippy. looks like it works though.

FYI, I went out to salinas California for the pick and pull sale (any seat $15). They've got two 74 4 door darts that look almost identical. Ones smashed in the back. Both slant 6s. A lot of the running gear is stripped but theres some decent interior stuff, glass and panels. I got a nice...

Hey all, I've been looking for some seat covers, but I can't seem to find any that fit my bench. Its a 73 duster but I don't think its the original seat. I I'm having trouble because i don't really know what to google for. Its a split bench high back but it does not have the arm rest that...

Alright, Which one of you made this thing? CARHUNTER : BOATHUNTER AGAIN JUST ANOTHER MOPAR MONDAY

Just a cautionary tale... I finished swapping in an 8 1/4 into my duster just in time for a quick trip to the Pinacles National park last week. About half an hour out on a busy highway the car started shaking violently and making a horrible driveline noise. No where safe to stop so we limped...

Hello, I'm upgrading my 7.25 to an 8.25 but It didn't come with the shock plates. I was wondering if there were any universal or affordable aftermarket shock plates that I could order instead of trying to track down a used part?

Hello, I'm looking for a set of 8.25 shock plates. I'm upgrading my 8.25. Thanks!

Hello, I was wondering if anyone knew if the driveshaft for an a250 would be compatible with a 904 transmission? I bought an 8.25 rear end out of a 73 duster which had a slant 6 and an a250. I got the driveshaft as part of the deal. As is I would have to shorten my driveshaft to fit the 8...

Hey all, I'm trying to track down a water intrusion problem. As you've probably seen on the news its typhooning here on the central California coast. I've got a 73 duster that's always had leaking problems, but I've just covered it in a tarp and its been mostly ok since I don't care about...

Hello all, I was wondering if anyone could tell me how long an A250 transmission is. I'm looking at buying a rear end that comes with the driveshaft. It would save me a lot of hassle if I could bolt it to my 904 without having to cut it. thanks for your time.

Found this in San Jose. 7-1/4 sure grip, from what I understand they're actually a little hard to find. Mopar A body 7 1/4 rear end with 2.94 Sure Grip

Hello, I was wondering what people think is a fair price for an abody 8-1/4 rear end? With or without suregrip. I've seen some other posts but they're all about five years old. Also, I live in california so everything seems to be more expensive. Thanks.

Hey all, i just want to make sure... a 73 2 door dart will have a longer driveshaft than a 73 duster, correct? I believe that the dart had a 111 inch wheelbase while the duster only has 108. I'm looking at an 8.25 to swap in and it would be a lot easier to buy the accompanying driveshaft than...

Hey all, I thought I'd try to get some opinions before I go through with this project. My buddy is going to vinyl wrap his vanagon and I told him we could practice on the duster since its already ugly. I thought we'd just do the hood because its small and wouldn't be to expensive. normally I...

Hi all, I'm looking for a large bolt pattern 8 1/4 rear end to replace my screaming 71/4. I would like to find one that is drum to drum and in good condition just to make the whole swap easier. Suregrip would be awesome too. I'm in Monterey, CA 93940. Thanks.

Hey, I was wondering if anyone could give me some tips on this one. I'm trying to put a modern radio in my 73 duster. Its become a huge pain because I can't get the old radio out with the A/C in the way so I can't see the wires. I was thinking about just completely bypassing everything and...
