What is the Allan key adjusting?

Not for the faint of heart. I'm speaking from experience. I only did it because I'm doing a complete rotisserie restoration on my Duster. If I started with the car you have, I'd have never gone down this road. The Brewers kit is pricey, but you'll spend almost as much trying to piece meal it...

Hey FABO, Just wanted to give a shout out to a member here that totally gets the point of the MOPAR brotherhood. @pauly is a beauty. I needed some small pieces for a truck window, and he very generously came through, without accepting any money for the parts. I'm very grateful to him for...

Get yourself one of these (or some variation of it)... You won't believe how many times you'll use it.

PM sent. Thanks

Hey FABO! Sorry for the truck post, but I'm trying to find some vent window hardware and I know there are some truck guys here on FABO. 1 - Plastic spacer that goes between the window frame and the door frame 2 - Retainer clip that goes around the pivot stud on the vent window swivel...

There's a pic in Post #1 of Part 2 that shows what I found at a hardware store to replace the rivets. Kinda like a threaded barrel nu with a little bolt that has a river head. Pop Out Window Resto - Part 1 Pop Out Window Resto - Part 2

I suppose that's possible, but I would need to move the aftermarket heater that is currently on the other side of that panel. Plus, one of those pieces is the Holley Hyperspark coil, so the coil wire would need to pass through the firewall to the distributor. Which I guess could be done.

Been making some headway on the Trailduster lately. Painted the front frame rails, just to clean up the engine bay appearance... Had to fab up a place for all of the Holley Sniper electronics and components to go, so I'm using the spot where the original heater box was (since I'm running an...

Like others have said, it's not too difficult. If you do end up taking it apart, make sure you keep track of where each shim goes! You'll have a pile of parts that you can scrub If you don't want to mess with taking it apart, get some Oil Eater and submerge the shifter in it for a couple...

Alright, thanks again for all the replies. So, I verified that the slots in the shaft matched what RRR said. Driver's side at the front, facing down. Pass side at the rear facing down. I turned the crank by hand and was able to get some oil out of the passenger rockers, then my drill died...

Thank you for all the replies. First off, I didn't build this engine. I bought it from another FABO member, who said it was a strong runner, no issues, etc. So I have no idea if the bearings were lined up with the oil port holes. Second, how do I tell if the shaft is installed either...

Hey FABO! Well, I'm really hoping for some info here that helps me avoid a worst-case-scenario. Today I primed my 318LA engine, in preparation to fire it soon. I had a helper turn the engine over with the ignition key while I use the drill to prime the pump. After a few seconds, the driver...

I'm in Ireland at the moment, and came across this while driving in Dublin. I wonder if these letters would look good across the back of my 70 Duster?

@challengergary all the way!
