    diy adjustable strut rods

    Dont hang me on the cross, but doesnt this just squash one side of the LCA bush against the tube, and possibly speeding up failure? And also how much adjustment can be had with this without compromising the bush? Im happy to be educated

    Cowl mounted gauges

    100% my thought too...Ive already blown an oil line at the back of the gauge inside once and hot oil on bare legs wasnt that awesome

    Cowl mounted gauges

    Had a quick search, but no solid answers... Im hoping to cowl mount oil, temp and fuel pressure, two questions...how have you mounted them with trashing the cowl bars? Im thinking of drilling and tapping a plate, dropping it in the hole and securing the gauges to that.. Secondly, has anyone...

    Car still runs with key off ..have I wired this right?

    Trigger wire is definitely in the wrong place...you mentioned IGN1 and IGN2... Ive found the blue provides power in "on" position but goes off when moved to "START" , the brown wire is the opposite... are you implying that I can connect the two and use that as the trigger or did I misread your...

    Car still runs with key off ..have I wired this right?

    Did a quick search but couldnt find anything specific to help me.Ive rewired my engine bay and moved the battery to the truck area. I connected the charge wire from my "one wire" alternator, directly to the +B pole on the starter motor as recommended, and it starts and runs properly...however...

    Custom 67-69 Barracuda cluster/gauges ?

    Apparently Classic make a Barracuda fascia to take aftermarket gauges...If you were retro fitting the OE fascia, you will need a speedo and one of the 4 in 1 gauges for the other side, and a small tach in the centre maybe? Plenty to choose from

    wiring

    One wire at a time is my advice...work out where both ends go each time, finish that one move to the next one...as mentioned there are some colour coded wiring diagrams to be had at My Mopar... thats a good start ...Im in the middle of this too...its quite the task but stick at it

    Rookie electrical question

    Im fitting relays to my headlight circuit. Does it matter how far from the headlight the relay is? Want to be fitting them under dash and running cable forward...For the record Im probably going LED ...Plan B is something on the front of the rad support but hoping this is unnecessary.. Thoughts?

    Bulkhead Delete

    Has anyone actually deleted the bulkhead fitting in a bid to tidy the engine bay wiring...Im looking at a full clean up in there, and am not sure If I should pull the plug and mount it somehow inside the firewall, or cut it off and solder wires on and direct them to their respective...

    Auto to Manual Pedal conversion

    Pedal boxes arent easy to get my hands on here, a long way from Hamtramck...Im probably more interested in the mechanics of adding a clutch pedal to the existing auto pedal box if possible? Is this something that will work or will I be reinventing the wheel?

    I have a 68 Barracuda currently running auto...Looking at trying to fit a hydraulic clutch set up in it...Ive looked at the service manual but its not super clear for my model...does the clutch pedal slip into the same box as the brake pedal or do I have to change all that? Im an Aussie and it...
