    15 x 7s, what size would you run on a 68 four door dart ?

    I do not honestly know but can actually find out- I have 11 jeeps, and my TJ is my daily driver, but I would have to have the rear tires off it- I don't have a spare rear end for that laying around- I bought the jeep cheap because the 35 was wrecked, but got another one off Oahu, been driving it...

    15 x 7s, what size would you run on a 68 four door dart ?

    I had to go look and remeasure to be sure- but my YJ is 58", wich is about a half inch narrower than the A body? Spring pads are identicle spot, only wrong side of the axle. Looks like I am going with the cooper 205s, so fitment should be pretty good.

    Jeep 4.0 in 69 Barracuda

    I was always shocked by how small the radiators were in the jeeps.

    Jeep 4.0 in 69 Barracuda

    REmember these 4.0s don't exactly have a heavy duty radiator stock and don't overheat easily- coming from someone living in the tropics- might source a stock XJ radiator, which is paper thin compared to the A body mopar ones- and they used both and electric and mechanical fan stock. I just...

    Jeep 4.0 in 69 Barracuda

    Congrats and super happy for you! What was the change with the starter issue that made it work? I still am a bit amazed that the 4.0 isn't too tall for this call.

    15 x 7s, what size would you run on a 68 four door dart ?

    I have a 73 duster front disc set up. The 35 Is exactly the same width as the dart bolt surface to bold surface. So maybe I just just be safe with a 205?

    Shockmount-spring pad thingy

    I think I need new ones. and got one from Speedway, they send me the wrong on for the left side. I could be wrong, but they kinda look like they won't fit anyway. The right side one on my 68 four door dart is looking like it is going to lose the shock mount part before too long. Anyone know...

    Remember when we were young and this was the look we were going for.

    Remember when we were young and this was the look we were going for.

    FYI_ I went into the army in 1982, got out in 1988. During the active time, until late early 1985, I probably flipped over 100 muscle car era cars by using my travel money back and forth to Alaska, buy em cheap in the south, sell em dear in Alaska. From 62 corvettes to 70 LS6 Chevelles to...

    Remember when we were young and this was the look we were going for.

    The strip here is still here, not going anywhere, and expanding. Especially since the big money racers etc really have to come here or Maui to race. I have to go over two lava flows to get home now since the 2018 flow- I was evacuated like 4 times, ended up sleeping on the floor of my clinic for...

    Finally got all the parts together- I think?

    I got the valve, the lines and fittings are what is going to be a hassle. Especially with the jeep rear end going in.

    Remember when we were young and this was the look we were going for.

    Well, on the big island we have one. In Alaska, there was one. IN Alaska, the biggest class was "top street" which was 10.00-11.99, at least 30 cars every weekend in that class- so that was where the money was! Here in Hawaii, the "full" class is the 8.99-9.99 here, with at least 30 cars every...

    Remember when we were young and this was the look we were going for.

    IF you look at my car in my avatar- I went the opposite back in those days. This car has been dialed at 9.90 to 11.90 depending on motor and track. I am going to put it back into the 9s , because that is the money class here, have to make the bars legal though. FYI I have had this car since 1984

    Finally got all the parts together- I think?

    A local fella parted out a 73 duster, and viola, I am doing the swap in two weeks. I got upper control arms to ball joint. I ordered the correct ball joint for the swap- shoots, I should say, it's a 4 door 68 dart, will post a pic of it. I am going to BBP for wheel selection, and of course...

    I bought the bbp 10.75 Disc brake conversion for 68 A bodies. I have been parking my wife's dart at a friends house- my lava road is too dangerous for oil pans LOL- but it's really cool, it has a lift! So I am going to do the work there. They will cut the factory axel side U joint off and put...
