I have a leak in the rear axel of my '71 demon (741 casting). With my current garage situation (recently moved) I am not well set up to deal with it. Does anyone know a shop in North Dallas, Texas (Celina/Prosper area) they would recommend?

If anyone is wondering. I went ahead and put in some 1157 LEDs in the tail lights this weekend. Turns out someone may years ago already changed out the flashers to digital ones, because they worked right away and were much brighter than the old bulbs. Can't believe I didn't do this a long time...

Just checking on something before ordering. Assuming I am getting ~12V to the current break/turn-signal lights the LED Lights, Bulbs & LED Lighting Accessories | Super Bright LEDs 1157 (red) should just be plug and go correct? Is there anything else I need, or is it really that simple?

Based off of this 1972 Dodge Demon - Second Chance with a few changes. I had discussed this idea with the local shop (Ideal Performance) that helps me out with issues that are over my head. When I had it in the shop getting a leak fixed which I didn't have the tools to attack, they decided to go...

If anyone is interested: What I have decided to go with is just keeping a normal air cleaner base-plate and an extra filter in the trunk. If it starts to rain hard (and I will be stuck in it for a while) I can just pull over and swap the air cleaners. After various research I think my setup is...

I recently got the custom cold air intake up and running, and I just saw it may storm heavily for part of Hot Rod Power Tour (I plan on attending). Do I need to drill a couple of drain holes, make sure I have a 1/2" or more gap in the seal or just not drive if it starts to rain more than a...

After 10 years of slow progress I feel like I made a giant leap forward in the last few months. I can't take all the credit for the below, some items were just beyond my skill set and I found a local shop that helped tackle some of it (Thanks Ideal Performance!). I also thank my wife for her...

Just saw this when searching because I have a very similar issue on my top. I think I may have a small amount of over-spray on the top (can figure out what else it would be). I would really hate to scrap the top since it is a good fit and is not cracked or scratched. Any ideas would be appreciated.

Pretty sure I got by Cragars with custom backspacing through Jegs years ago.

Well that depends on how you define daily driver. I have driven the Demon to work 3 days this week and to dinner last night. My other vehicle is a Silver 2dr 2015 Wrangler Rubicon (Manual, No power Locks or Windows). Apparently I don't have pictures of it. I would take one with my phone, but...

I know how you feel right now. I have twin 3 1/2 yr old girls. One is very into anything with wheels and the other just likes Jeeps (I also have a wrangler). The biggest question for me is what is my wife OK with them driving. Her requirement list looks something like the below: Power Steering...

I have 3.73s in my demon right now. 3,500rpm at ~75mph (my speedo gauge is not accurate) 295/50/15 tires. For around town and short jaunts on the HW I love these gears. The problem is I live in Lubbock, Texas now and most car shows and meetups are 2-3 hour HW drives away. So I am trying to come...

When I was 15 I was working for a plumbing company and my dad said he will match my investment in my first car if he approved. I found a '71 340 Demon that appeared to be in decent shape. For whatever reason I loved that car (Orange, Black Stripes, Vinyl roof). Dad refused to match and told me...

I presume you mean the one on the trunk lid like below: I don't have one for my Demon either.

I am happy with the under dash mount I made for my 3 3/8" tach.

Is everything else interchangeable on the 742 and 741? I didn't think I could switch them like that...

Please forgive the the novice here. When I took on this project nine years ago, I had not worked on a car myself outside of oil changes and plugs type work. Do you mean just get a new pumpkin with 3.23s, use that for power tour, then get back home and put the pumpkin with 3.73s back on? If...

The ones I think I can get a-hold of are aftermarket. The factory low gear set for the 727 seems like the Mopar equivalent of Sasquatch.

Presuming I could find a low gear set for my 727: 2.74/1.54/1.00 (Looks like I may have found them). Then I would change out ring and pinion from 3.73s to 3.23s. If my rough estimates are correct this would give me a slightly better launch than my old 3.55s did with the stock gears (though not...

Thanks! It looks like the Mopar club in Lubbock died.... A friend here with some nice mopars just recomended yesterday that I try to meet up with you guys.

Just putting a few smaller pictures back for anyone interested. (since they were removed above)

Hello! Figure the thing to do is introduce myself. I'm in my mid 30s currently living in Lubbock, Texas. I have had my '71 Demon since ~2006 and have been slowly getting it where I want it. After having twins and years of little progress I have motivated myself with the goal of joining the...
