    Should my 1974 Duster have a hood - to - radiator support gasket?

    Just buy it and put it on. Correct? Who cares if you want it. It’s your car.

    Lifter failure

    Sorry for your troubles. Part is the quality of parts is in the toilet right now. Very sad. A lot of work for sure.

    Intake (heat shield) and metal gaskets?

    Caliper dust boot install

    Dust boot for the mounting bolt or the caliper piston. Very different. Mounting bolt- easy peasy. Caliper piston- piston needs to come out. Install the new seal and bellows- apply a little air and pop in the piston that is wet with brake fluid. The air helps blow the seal around the piston so...

    Dialing in my 73 project Duster

    8-1/4 is fine. Sure grip so both tires are splitting the action and you will go a long time. Reverse drive drops- no rear end holds up. Just be smart. Syleng1

    Napa Gold now made in china

    Well, they are not in business to give stuff away. Sometimes they do what they have to do to keep the lights on. My local Napa owns 5 or 6 stores now. Either go big or go home. He is at the point now where he can make a call and they listen. But a single mom and pop store cannot do that.

    Massive caster variance Side to side

    Also, if you loosen your k frame bolts you can “Shift”it one way or the other. But Rusty is right. There is a tool for pushing on brake pedal up to steering wheel or front seat. Hood prop rod works too. Like Leslie makes. I’m not a fan of a “do it yourself alignment.” Maybe to get it close...

    clutch fan won't fit

    You can buy the clutch portion with shorter length. V6 V8 Dakota for one. I believe the 1996 or older version. The depth is very short.

    Speedo gears

    Speedo gears should be the same. Something changed like tire size or calibration of Speedo cluster.

    That’s awesome. Especially when you hear it clear as day and the car is over a block away. Nice job!
