    Clutch Grinding

    The clutch grinds on my 1969 Dart 340, 4 Speed, when I fully depress the clutch toward the floor. I recently installed a McLeod Borg and Beck Pressure Plate. I believe that I have the clutch adjusted properly with 5/32” slack at the fork and 1” at the pedal. Has anybody else ever encountered...

    SPECS ON PILOT BUSHING, CRANK PILOT HOLE ID AND INPUT SHAFT

    Does anybody know if there are published Chrysler specs on the pilot bushing ID, OD and installed ID? Also the crankshaft pilot hole ID and an Input Shaft OD? I may have my 340 crank rebushed. I know the Brewer Website states some specs on their pilot bushings, but I wouldn't mind verifying...

    CLUTCH GRINDING NOISE / BH MISALIGNMENT

    This is a long and complicated question. So for intrepid Mopar problem solvers, get your reading glasses and here goes: Last summer I ordered a 10 1/2” McLeod Borg and Beck clutch and pressure plate for my stock ‘69 Swinger 340. I received the scalloped 10.95” PP, an 11”clutch disc (sizes as...

    TOB Manufacturer Recommendation

    After putting about 600 miles on my new McLeod Borg and Beck clutch in my 69 Dart 340, it started making a grinding noise when the clutch pedal was fully depressed. I sent the Aetna throw out bearing to the McLeod tech department for analysis. They said it was damaged and also showed...

    Install Dust Cover

    The dust cover I removed from my 340 had some upper parts of the metal cut away. So I bought a new one. Unless I am looking at something wrong laying under the car, does the passenger side have a hole that looks like it has to go between the bell housing and engine block? If so, it seems like...

    Height of 340 Pressure Plate

    I had terrible clutch chatter on the 69 Dart 340 that I bought last winter. The transmission mount had a rip in it. There didn't seem to be a problem with the flywheel (which I had turned about .006), clutch or pressure plate. Turns out that the fork is a big block fork that measured 11" long...

    Trouble Removing 4 Speed Trans

    I am trying to remove my 833 out of a 69 Dart. I've slid it back some, but the case hits a cross brace in the tunnel and it won't slide any further. Doesn 't seem like I could lower it because the main drive pinion and spline is still in the throw out bearing and fork. Any advice? Thanks.

    Z Bar Paint Color

    I've had my Z bar sandblasted. It looks like it is an aftermarket one. It seemed to be a silver color. Can anybody please tell me what color the original Z bar color was in a 1969 Dart?

    Removing Clutch/Brake Assembly- 69 Dart

    Does anyone have any experience removing the Clutch/Brake Assembly on a 69 Dart? I have removed all the bolts, but the assembly hits a bracket in front around the speedo cable, before the bolts that attach the master cylinder clear the firewall. This bracket appears to be attached somewhere...
