    Rear end Swap

    The article also says the widths are the same through 1970. Axle Flange to flange width on a 68-70 is wider than the 66-67 axle. Spring pads are the same width apart. Only want to advise you to measure the wheel you want to use since the article doesn’t say what axle they actually used. I’m...

    Pirate Jacks front disc kit question

    Tabs on the lower control arm for sway bar were welded on in a separate process. The welds like all welds of the age were complete garbage. I have several pairs of these control arms and I’ve been fixing some of the welds. The control arms are most likely stock. Clearance issues come into play...

    727 Difference inside

    Thanks all. These are the bits I wanted to provide but hadn’t time to provide. I found the right shaft for long shaft 727 from cope racing transmissions. The original output shaft housing was 18 5/8.

    727 Difference inside

    Hello Not wanting to butt in but splines on the output shaft changed as well. It’s been a bit since I searched it but 77 definitely has the later spline angle. The old parts will install but the trans will not stay together if you use the early shaft in late parts. So use the late trans for the...

    73+ Drum to Disc Options

    Uh oh. I apologize. I should have measured the spindles more closely. The spindle diameter is different. They are otherwise the same casting. Inner bearing for b body is an A6 while later A body is an A17. The difference can’t be seen it has to be measured.(.040 in) Lower balljoint is the same...

    73+ Drum to Disc Options

    If my B body info is wrong I know someone will quickly correct me. But to find a kit like you need search for one for a 68 or 69 charger.

    73+ Drum to Disc Options

    Yes I apologize. I wasn’t more specific. B body from 65 to 72 and all E body drum is the same spindle as 73 to 76 A body drum.

    73+ Drum to Disc Options

    Yes indeed. The spindle used on the 73 and up drum cars was actually the B and E body drum spindle. I have both and put them next to each other. Leed as well as SSBC both have a kit that uses the Kelsey Hayes caliper and a mustang rotor. SSBC sells their kit with dual drilled rotors for small...

    ´70 Valiant / Upper ball joint

    So the part number you gave is correct for the small upper ball joint. The same was used on all A bodies up until 72. As for the tool for those it looks like this and I believe that to be the correct size as well. Search the tool outlets for balljoint socket. They cost around $30 so I wouldn’t...

    Ethanol

    The fuel requirements are different as well. (Re-jet the carb and bigger accelerator shot) I’ve looked into this a bit and would recommend using a fuel injection system. Also for better performance ethanol needs higher compression. So possibly mill the heads.

    Ride height for 68 Valiant

    Factory ride height? This thread discusses it as well. 1/8 difference max side to side and 2 1/2 inch difference from T bar socket to bottom of ball joint

    Ride height for 68 Valiant

    That does work but service manual does provide a measurement method. And spec. Here is the section on it from the 67 service manual.

    What’s up with R134 prices?

    Also r1234yc operates at much higher condenser pressures so it requires different compressor and higher rated system. And Mercedes Benz still refuses to us it because in the first test they witnessed, it caught fire in standard accident conditions

    What’s up with R134 prices?

    All above is interesting but so everyone knows the only reason prices are doubled is because federal mandates cutting production of R134a as well as R 410 and others.

    A/C evaporator conversion from old to new Freon

    Having serviced a few A/Cs. I have to warn you to do a pressure test on it first. If the evaporator coil holds 135-165psi without leaks then replace the expansion valve and flush it out. (Remove valve and flush then install expansion valve) I pressure test with dry nitrogen. The expansion valve...

    Converting to front disks

    Putting any proportioning valve in the system makes the peddle feel harder. If you have the original 10 x 1 3/4 rear brakes, keep them. This reduces the rear bias significantly. I drive mine without as much adjustment in the shoes so the pedal travels more thus giving more front bias. Big bolt...

    small bolt pattern disc brake kits for 14" cragars

    Hello gents. Just working through the small and big bolt pattern quandary and I noticed that the SSBC brakes still offer the dual pattern rotor. So the other option to put discs up front is the kit from them.

    Inland shifter ???

    About 20 yrs ago the cables for those shifters weren’t available. I found that a common bicycle brake cable can be adapted to work. Aluminum bar stock of the right diameter and drill it to accept the cable. Return spring was available through the local hardware store. Save a few bucks. As for...

    not sure how to fix this

    I’ve had this issue on two of mine. “Front hump” is where the metal was pulled out of shape with the mounting screw. Don’t replicate it. The basic shape of the door skin can be made by pushing sheet down over a pipe to create the curve. Weld that new piece in and redrill for mounting. Any sheet...

    66 B body 8 3/4 to 72 A body swap

    I absolutely recommend front disc brakes. When you brake the majority of the cars weight transfers onto the fronts. Given the brakes modern cars have we have to step up our game to stay safe. As for track it’s been over 30 yrs since I’ve run anything. I can’t say anything there. ( I ran all 6...
