For 69 Cuda: my driver side brake light lens has a small section broken off (at the base) can you buy a lens? if so from whom or is the lens part of the tail light assemble? I am just a brake bleed off from getting the car registered and I'm worried that they might knock it back when I go for...

Got another problem, when I pulled drum brakes apart I took photos on phone, then some low life stole it. I can put brakes back together all right but I got confused on which way the cable for the auto adjuster goes. I remember than on the front (10") and rear (11") left hand side-driver side...

I have finally got my car (69 Cuda) sorted except for rear 11" brakes. I need them to be fully overhauled including drums ( I adapter Ford 11" drums to fit -cost of drums and freight from US would make you faint ) The problem is that the parking brake levers were missing when I got the car, I...

Can someone direct me to where I will be able to purchase the metal clips that hold the rod onto the knob/ball at the back of the door handle on a 69 barracuda. Probably not describing it well but I hope you get the idea.

I am trying to install the cable clips on my cuda heater box, and having no luck except entertaining the idea of burning the car. They are new clips and as much as I try to hold the cable and the doors in the right position with one hand and at the same time trying to put the clip on with my arm...

Is there a special way to fit the universal joint into the yoke on the diff. section. I have been under the car for hours trying to get the shoulders to bed into the yoke, they go about half way in, I can get 1 strap on but the other side sticks out too much to get the other one on. Also is...

Front universal joint is cactus, seemed simple to change from the book until I crawled under car and attempted to remove (by the book), is it better to remove rear uni joint to gain better access to front? or is there another way? Cheers, Monaro.

I think that my 727 had been changed to a manuel change (ref. to previous thread), is it a big job to convert it back to auto while g'box is in car. I saw a manuel conversion kit from Summit and it looked like there was not much it the kit so I'm hoping that it may be a simple job as I have the...

How can you tell the difference between a 727 or a 904 when its installed in your car. My car did not have any kick down set up when I got it, it was also missing the kick down lever on the gear box. Bloke I brought it from said that it was a 727 so I got a flexable kick down kit (Lokard ) and...

The saga continues. I have replaced std. manifolf with a air gap alloy manifold. Due to other factors I am thinking of replacing Carter with a Holley 600, however some are advising me to get a larger Holley 700-750, other are telling me that Holleys are crap. Can I get input, it is a std. 340...

Have to remove manifold off my 340 for repairs. Outside weight and retaining heat are there many other advantages for the cost or should I repair iron one. Cheers, Monaro

Had my instruments sent away for repair-"no worries mate should be ready in 3 weeks" 3 months later got it back, now I can't remember how the 3 cables from my heater control connect to the heater box, service manual about as useful as tits on a bull. Car is a 69 cuda. Top cable has 1 cable with...

Can anyone direct me to where I can get power steering brackets to suite 69 Cuda with 340. On the net I can find them for later models or big blocks but non for my model. Cheers, Monaro

Does anyone out there know the free camber height of the leaf springs on a 69 cuda. I measured everything up took off springs then realised that there were air shocks fittered to car not sure what effect they had on measurment. Monaro.

Whats the opinion on replacing/re-conditioning leaf springs? Discussion is divided over here, some say replace only, others say the reco ones work just as well. Although mine did not sag, they are in a rough state with one falling apart when I removed it (no cracks or broken leafs). The car will...

Have to replace upper ball joints on my 69 cuda. Don't have proper extractor was going to use 'tuning fork' tool. Can I get away with it or are there any other suggestions. Cheers, Monaro

I'm doing up front end and not sure how to test/inspect torsion bars to see if they are ok, is it just a case of seeing if the front end sags? p.s. looks great unlike the rest that looks like it the original gear from the factory-69 Cuda. Monaro

I want to fit 'baby moons' caps to my std. rims on a 69 cuda, trouble is I don't really understand how inches work. I have been told that the cap size are generally (for my model) 8 3/4". A supplier is stating 8 23/32" for Mopar is that close enought. Cheers, Monaro.:banghead:

Need advice on what shocks (all round) I should fit to my 69 Cuda (340 with drums all round). Have air on rear (came with car) but it bounces around like a unset junket in a wind storm. P.S. last problem that I had with brake pedal not returning was due to faulty booster. Monaro

Having problems bleeding brakes, I have fitted new master cylinder (drums all round 69 cuda-with booster) Pedal is limp and sits on floor (can move it up and down) suprised that there no return spring (GM background) accourding to book, back pressure from master cylinder holds pedal in place is...
