Maybe consider the 3/8 insulator instead of the spacer.

Man I did so much riding on that beach and in the dunes. I did the last half of my senior year of high school in Arroyo Grande, but lived in Shell Beach because my Dad got transferred from Susanville CA. to the Mens Colony in SLO. We lived about 80 miles north of Tahoe in the mountains up till...

Thanks for the encouragement. My Brother and an extended family member are going on a five day ride up north on their bikes. The Wife suggested I follow along in my car. Nah, that’s ok.

Looks nice. Thank you.

Dashpad is good, but everything else is the wrong color. Just kidding, but keep in mind that black reflects off the windshield less.

Used to live in that area, but the Dart has never been there.

Yea, I saw that video. The thing is, if I was working with some of the stuff he does I would hack some of it too.

Is it possible that the bearings you got years ago were better quality? Maybe. I take all the YouTubers with a grain of salt, and some are so hack I have to change the channel, so please don’t think I fall for everything anyone else says or does. Speaking from first hand knowledge on the...

I have been getting in the habit of driving the Dart to a different destination each weekend. One day (doesn’t matter which) and take off for the day. Possible destinations are getting shorter these days since I have been to most of them within 200 miles. Kind of thinking ghost towns as...

Have you seen Chris Birdsong’s video on green bearings? He REALLY hates them. Junkerup on YouTube. Found it.

Nice. My Sons prude ex girlfriend worked in a salon in the same parking lot as the local Safeway store. Him and I pulled up right in front of the big picture windows, set the line lock and did a 1-2-3 shift smoke show. Kinda surprised me to hear people screaming like they did. You would have...

A pain in the butt, but so worth it when it’s done. I had kinda the same thing happen, but it’s fixed now.

Don’t understand why anyone would put “green” bearings in their car. Overall unreliable POS. The factory bearings are WAY better. A buddy had fairly new ones and one let go on the hiway while we were going to a car show 90 miles away. Blew gear oil all over the entire back end of his car and...

The video is on my YouTube channel, Mopars4us. My Classic Auto Air install video isn’t real detailed, but just an overall of what I did to resolve some of the small problems. CAA was excellent about support when the expansion valve was bad right out of the box. They had a new valve here in 3...

Ah crap, I forgot about the lip.

Maybe put the bowl on a flat sanding surface like we would a water neck. Though the moto tool would obviously work, it would be hard to get a uniform surface with it.

If that boot is left unfolded you will probably be smelling burnt rubber, or it could actually catch on fire from the friction. I would cut that boot off. Lots of these cars never had the boot in the first place.

Unfortunately I can’t stand golf. Doesn’t mean it wasn’t a good suggestion though.

I have been considering this. One thing that puts a kink in those kinds of thoughts is remembering what A holes some people can be. You know, the ones that blame you for everything from then on. Just did 25 years of owning a computer service company, and they were even worse about that kind of...

My new Classic Auto Air unit takes 24 oz they say. They also say if the compressor is noisy it’s over filled. That kinda infers that one can fill until it gets noisy and let a little out. FYI, I had 40 degree air with the 24oz, but only showed about 20 on the low side and 150 on the high side...

For me it takes time. When I first got my Dart I would swear it was testing me. All kinds of little things, like it quit driving down the street for no apparent reason. Then I would find some stupid little thing and fix it. Then something else, and this went on for a couple of weeks. Finally one...

I put one of those shifters in my 66 Ranchero 3 speed on the floor and it worked great.

Only about a year or so actually. I know, too long.

Actually, there is a road trip I want to do. I want to drive over to Stockton, pick up my brother in law and hit all the beaches from Santa Cruse to LA. Can’t afford it just yet, but it’s coming.

Uh, no. Cook yer brains.:D

That would be tempting. One of the guys I used to ride with broke both wrists on a night ride I passed on. Hit a ditch he didn’t see till the last second.

Not a cry for help. Just a statement of fact.

See, that’s the thing. I would rather be alone actually. Thanks for the thought tho.

Pinion snubber mount and all.

Nothing but bars around here, and I don’t drink or even enjoy being around drunk people. There are a few night time car get togethers in Phoenix, but that is an hour and a half drive one way. I like driving at night on lit multi lane freeways with the windows down, but nothing like that around...
