    Dakota Rear in 72 Dart

    I've been looking for a new rear end for my Dart also. The Dakato's measure 63" from wheel mounting flange to wheel mounting flange. Cherokee's measure 60 3/4" wheel mounting flange to wheel mounting flange. My 73 Dart measures 56 1/2" wheel mounting flange to wheel mounting flange. Hope this helps.

    Speedometer cable noise

    I was driving the car this morning and speedometer quit working. Either the cable came off the back of the speedometer or the cable broke. I'm still hearing the same noise though, so it's got to be the sound of the cable spinning in it's housing. I'm going to look at it when I get off of work...

    Speedometer cable noise

    Hello, My speedometer has not worked since I purchased my car. I finally got around to replacing the speedometer cable and when I drive I can hear a noise coming from behind the instrument panel. Should the cable be making a noise? The guy at Napa said that the cable was already pre lubed. Thanks
