Right on. That's cool I checked the fuse.... Well I didn't test the fuse but it wasn't visibly bad I'm pretty sure that it was marked a/c I noticed that there was one for the blower as well. But the diagram will help a lot thank you.

It doesn't come on. I wasn't sure where to start. I was thinking that the compressor clutch was bad but I don't know where to begin the diagnosis. Thanks Charlie I'll try to jumper that switch. I'm just going from memory but the dryer has 2 connectors correct? And your talking about jumping...

I have a 72 dart with a slant six and factory a/c the compressor isn't cycling. Last summer it was fine. I drove it a little in the winter so obviously I didn't use the a/c this summer no air. What would cause the compressor not to cycle? And how to test the parts that may cause this. If its...

Having a tank retested is no big deal. There is a DOT number which if you can decode will tell you the life span of the tank then there is a hydrostat test date (which is the one your worried about). Depending on what type of tank you have it might have to be tested every 5-10 years. I...

They don't list them on their website, I called them and asked if they were available separately. They are the same ones that they include in their sway bar setup so if you order a sway bar from them they are included. I bought them separately. I don't remember exactly how much they cost, I...

Or you could buy a pair from Hotchkis and weld them on your self.

One other thing to consider is what year sway bar setup (if any) your plan to use. I didn’t see sway bar tabs on your lca's. I wanted to use the 73 and up sway bar so I'm also changing my k member. It sounds like you already have the bar and lca's for the 72 which would be fine.

This is very interesting. I had a 72 swinger 318 2 barrel auto trans. kh disks no sway bar it did have ps and power brakes and ac. So I'm thinking that it might be a torsion bar thing. It did have the washer. I remember it well because I asked my dad why it was there. He simply said because...

All the pieces that came with the firm feel kit are different thickness. The skid plate, the sliver and the teardrop shaped pieces are all about an 1/8 th thick the triangle with the curve inside is actually a little thinner (.10) the cut washers are thick 5 mm the strut rod washers are...

It's my understanding that that the washers your talking about are the cut ones that go on the lca side of the k member not on the nut side they are fairly thick. Sorry for the pictures not being oriented correctly but this is the only way I could get it to upload. .197 or 5 mm

These are the pieces for the 73 and up k member. Right now I don't have my k it's getting cleaned up

Ok so the k-member is going to get hot tanked then blasted. I got what I thought was real clean and the welding started ok but there are places that I just couldn't get with a wire wheel and I can feel more oil and Crap inside. It wasn't a total waste at least I got the stiffing plates and sway...

Well last night I degreased it 1 more time. I went around all the seams with a torch I found some significant oil reserves near the front of the k member. Today I will wire wheel it and make an attempt at welding it up. I figure I'll start in the areas that I found the most oil and see how it...

Thanks 72bluNblu, did you flatten out the the factory tabs up where the front strut rod bushings go?

I bought the k member last year. When I first got it home I degreased it and it's just been sitting outside I went out to take off the lca's and strut rods and noticed that there is still quite a bit of oil or grease around where the power steering gear goes. Maybe I'll just try to degrease it...

I just received the k-member reinforcement kit from Firm Feel. I plan on welding up my k-member today or tomorrow. Does anyone have any tip or suggestions, or is there anything that I should know before I start welding?

Thanks PoisonDart74. This place is awesome,every time I have a question there is always someone willing to help out thank you FABO

Hey thanks for all the info guys. I didn't buy them up fast enough. Oh well maybe next time.

I'm just getting ready to buy the firm feel's reinforcement plates so I could weld up my k-member. This thread has got me thinking. My k-member is sitting out back with the lca's and strut rods attached. How do you check for straight and square? What should I measure? From which points to which...

What I have is a 72 dart with a slant 6 that I'm swapping in 73 k-member. I getting ready to replace the power steering box hoses and pump. I was wondering if a cob box out of an 89 diplomat would be a good choice? Are the hoses the same or will I have to use different ones. I looked at Napa and...

I understand that all the valve train for hydo. would have do be used. Basically I would like to get all the block work done, then get the motor back in the car the take my time building a head. I plan to use the hydraulic setup. Will the hydro. valve train work on a 75 head? I know that the...

Ok so now does anyone know can I use the pre 80 head with the hydraulic valve train? I know that I can run mechanical cam in a hydraulic head but can I do the opposite. Use the non hydraulic head with hydraulic valve train?

I bought a long block that I found on ebay. I ended paying 300 for it. The buy it now price was 350 but I got the guy to knock off 50 because I picked it up. Last time I checked he still had one listed now the price is 600. It came with a few gaskets and an oil pump. I'm actually getting close...

Thanks mcode After looking online at some pictures of the pin type that is what I should have used. To tell the truth I didn't know that there were 2 different kinds of calipers. I finally got everything I have to set flat so I don't think I'll have a problem.

Also what have you guys done about the disk brake shields? Any pictures?

I got them from Preformance On Line (POL they advertise in the back of the mopar magazines). The spindles are made by Magnum Force. I don't know who made the caliper brackets. I just found it strange that I had to grind so much out of the caliper brackets to get them to sit flat on the spindle

From what I understand there is only one place making drop spindles (without getting into the rack and pinion setups) which is why it made me wonder. I got everything to sit flat and straight. I just didn't hear of anyone else having the same issue. If its the wrong bracket then maybe the...

I was starting to think that I had the wrong caliper brackets. When I first put everything together I noticed that the caliper wasn't sitting flat on the bracket. I noticed it was because the bracket wasnt sitting flat on the spindle. When I called the place I got it from they passed me to 4...

Ok so should the caliper be in the front? The other thing that I was wondering is there going to be enough room for the ball joint? I thought that the caliper should be on the back side. Also which way is the correct way for the caliper bracket?

So I decided to assemble my front brakes to make sure that I would have the proper clearance. The caliper just doesn't look right to me. The bleeder looks almost parallel to the ground so I reassembled it using the other caliper bracket. It looks almost the same. Does it look like I have...
