What? That rotor isn't that bad, that's the new vented style!

Nothing Mopar related, picked up a 700r4 for my truck, some cheap acrylic paint to practice with on the Duster and Camaro projects, and some sanding supplies. I was looking for pretty specific things for the projects, saw a lot of neat stuff that I could have bought but have no use for. Don't...

I loved it! No other commercial even came close.

Okay, took it apart again to look at the control section of it, didn't see anything corroded or looking out of place, but did notice from the design that the plastic carrier that controls the switch moved really easy. Since we were supposed to be moving shortly after I got the compressor, I...

I probably would have stayed longer but my pager went off as well. Was able to pick up a tranny for my chevy truck and some cheap paint to learn how to shoot again. Very little mopar stuff from what I saw, one mopar in the car corral used car section, a 76 RamCharger was being pushed in right...

No, but I'll probably give a mobile compressor service outfit a call and have them come and take a look at it. Rather spend a couple of hundred on a service call instead of risking the motor and replacing that at $600 or more. Thanks again for all the assistance!

Gotta love Colorado. Last night could barely get the wife's van out of the driveway, only got 14" here, but heavy wet stuff. This morning left for the swap meet about 10, interstate was clear and mostly dry, got back this afternoon and only have about 5" left on the grass, but lots of little...

Thanks for all the suggestions. I bypassed the contactors, and the issue went away and the motor ran smoothly but there was still a loud ticking. I still had the coil in the circuit and I could hear it opening and closing the contactors that was causing the ticking. I then disconnected the...

Thanks, I'll give that a try. Once I cleaned the contacts with some electronics cleaner, they didn't look too bad so just put them in and the issue persists. So, if bypassing the contactor has the same issue, would it be the cap on the motor? If bypassing does get rid of the issue, would it be...

Okay, here are the pictures of the contacts, and they look pretty pitted to me so I'm going to take an emery board and clean them up and see. The unloader is built in to the pressure switch, so when power is turned off a valve opens. As far as spinning freely, I was referring to the motor...

It's coming down still in Longmont, but not heavy, not enough to cover where I shoveled today so far. It's heavy and wet, more like a spring snow than a winter one.

Okay, I picked up a Dresser 5HP/80 Gallon compressor last year, and it's been working great, but last weekend I turned it on and it seemed like something was caught in the motor, it would turn for a millisecond, then stop, then turn again and just try to freeze up but eventually run okay. I...

I don't know how much we have here in Longmont, just know it's almost up to the shoulder on our border collie. Been a long time since she's seen this much snow, she hasn't decided if she likes it or not. Hey ramcharger, know of any 74 or 75 rc's for sale?

coming down pretty good here in Longmont now, yards are covered and starting to stick to the streets. Think we're supposed to get between 10-14".

I agree with Divenut, as long as it's old iron, I like it for the most part. My driveway is a good example with a 71 C10 truck, 70 Duster, 92 Camaro, and has had a 70 Mustang and a 69 Chevelle in it at times. I've also had Volare's, Aspens, Cutlass's, Challengers and Ford trucks through the...

Just remember, the dual 4 barrells were just for looks, and they go faster with a big fat holley.

That's good to hear that he got it sorted out. I think that's the hardest thing for my boys is asking for help and communicating. Communication between students and teachers does wonders, along with just simply going in after school and saying they are struggling and can the teacher help. One of...

Then you'll need different shock mount plates and u-bolts since the 8 1/4 has bigger axle tubes on it. Just did this swap this summer on the son's Duster. Found some aftermarket plates and u-bolts but if you can find OEM ones it would be better. The shock mount plates and u-bolts from another 8...

I hear ya, both my boys are bright and intelligent. My oldest scored high on the ACT, but was lucky to get a 2.5 GPA in high school. He went to Iowa State for a year, didn't do very good with a GPA below 2.0, so now he's taking the hard road with community college to get his GPA up and go back...

I admire the guys restraint. Anyone recognize where this occurred? Just a thought to try to publicize it and get her 15 minutes of fame focused where she lives so her friends and neighbors can see what an aggressive ugly sorry excuse for a human being she is.

Great looking car and wife in a beautiful location. Thanks for sharing!

So sorry to hear of your loss. I lost my father in August unexpectedly due to COPD, and I feel his absence every day still. I'm just thankful that he still had a decent quality of life, I don't think I could have dealt with seeing him declining to the point of a nursing home after seeing my mom...

My condolences on your loss, I lost my mom 5 years ago to colon cancer and lost my dad a couple of months ago to copd. It's going to be rough for a while for you, but day by day it will get better. Focus on the good memories and laughing will help.

Hey Khalid, just thought I'd say hi and thanks for the 302 heads, we'll make sure that they get to a good use. You and my son would have some in common, he's taking a semester off from Iowa State's materials engineering program and trying to work on his Duster as money allows. We just got done...

So what back spacing would work on a 70 duster that's been converted over to 5 on 4.5?

Prayers and condolences to his family and friends. It sounds like he fought all he could, as long as he could. It was a year ago today that this other thread was started. May he rest in peace. http://www.forabodiesonly.com/mopar/showthread.php?t=120534

A friend sent this and thought I'd share....

This has been in Colorado for a number of years, I can't remember how long ago I started seeing the signs for the smoking vehicle hotline at the emissions stations. I'm guessing it's probably been close to 7 or 8 years now. I don't think I've seen more than 3 vehicles in 20 years that I would...

I'll see if I can measure in a couple of weeks when we head back to Nebraska for a visit, along with getting some pictures of the truck.

Thanks guys! Learn something new every day.
