    What Are You Doing To/With Your Car Today?

    I rebuilt my Carter BBS Ball&ball with this NOS kit : The carb was leaking and very dirty. Don't know how the engine was working with this piece of trash :rolleyes: The body has been degreased/cleaned with my ultrasound machine and galvanized. Every worn part has been replaced, new gaskets...

    Vintage Mopar Dealership Pictures

    Not in England, this Barracuda is a LHD car. Maybe in France. I don't think that it's a fog lamp, but a reflective device (I don't know the correct word in english). There is another one on the left side, partially hidden by the bumperette. It's mandatory here to be homologated. A 70's Chrysler...

    Mailing to France

    And if US mail asks you for filling an export form, just check the gift box. But sincerely, I think not. Normally, letters are not concerned by customs declarations

    Mailing to France

    Hi S'cuder For a so tiny and lightweight item, a padded envelop will be perfect. And Claydart will be able to send it as a letter, not a parcel. This way, I think that he won't have to fill any US export form. The envelop will probably escape from import and custom taxes. With USPS priority...

    WHAT GOES HERE?

    I checked the firewall of my Demon this morning Sorry for the bad picture but it's not easy to slip a telephone among this pile of wires, cables and pipes :) Tjpatte, Dana67dart and WymanV are right : thru this hole goes the green wire for the clutch safety and its grommet. Your firewall seems...

    intake/exhaust mounting, what am I missing?

    Hi Dne Yes, I know this subtility for the old (with 3 conical washers) and the newer manifold (with only one)., but I don't know what these washers look like. Now on your picture I see the conical washer. Thank you. But I think that you don't use the correct nut. There, I think that you must use...

    intake/exhaust mounting, what am I missing?

    I plan to make the same job than Dne007 but I have some interrogations about this tricky exhaust/intake manifolds installation. I have the two brass washers and the 8 triangular ones but what do the three conical washers look like? :thankyou: François

    What Are You Doing To/With Your Car Today?

    As I have to replace my exhaust manifold (it's broken, not leaking but broken), I purchased one used some months ago. It comes from a '68 Dart. When I got it After sanding After some layers of high-temp paint The carb heater flap axle was severely stuck and didn't move anymore. After a...

    Rear leaf spring bushings

    Thank you Mr Townsend for the part # :) I took a moment to dive under my Demon and I measured the overall diameter of my front eye bushing. Seems to be 1-1/2.

    Rear leaf spring bushings

    Hi all What's the Mopar part number and the OD of these 70-71 Dart/Duster bushings? Finding the shackle bushings is simple but I don't find a clear answer on internet about the front eye bushings... :thankyou:

    What is this wire

    Maybe this one : More Information for BUSSMANN AMI70

    What is this wire

    I made the same ammeter bypass modification some months ago. This big wire charges the battery and feeds the whole car wirings. Normally it has to be protected by a standard fuse or a 14 Ga. fusible link.

    Noisy Demon trunk lid?

    As the noise is still there, and like all other possible problems have been eliminated, I suspect the leaf springs bushings, yes. Is it easy to replace them? I do not have the Mopar special tool shown in the FSM, nor something like that.

    Noisy Demon trunk lid?

    Instead of a nut/screw combinaison, I injected some foam through the hole I drilled into the inner bracing. It works and no bulge outside. The trunk lid isn't noisy anymore. But it's a semi-victory because the noise, subject of this thread, is always there :BangHead:

    Noisy Demon trunk lid?

    Here's what happens when I push with my thumb on the trunk lid. The smooth outer metal sheet is elastic. It's noisy and also hits the inner bracing (the space between them is thin, maybe 2 or 3mm) The median rib on mid '71 trunk lids is probably how Chrysler fixed the problem. Now, how...

    1971 UNDER CAR PIC NEEDED

    Hi Troy What do you call e brake? Hand brake? Here are the only two pictures I have, and sorry, I only have the driver side. They are not very evocative, but the photos were made for the exhaust, not the brakes :rolleyes:

    Wiring Questions

    Even if the dash is still in place into the car, it's not a big challenge. My Demon original harness was abused, modified/cut/welded and nearly out of service. I found a kind member here on FABO that sold to me another used dash wiring harness, out of a 71 Demon too. Replacing the harness has...

    Dash reverse light

    I wouldn't take the risk to pull on the front chrome bezel. It's easy to reach and replace the bulb from the back

    Duster reverse dash light wire routing.

    IMO it's not original. As told above, the reverse lights (and the dashboard indicator light) wiring goes thru the bulkhead connector. But, what's your problem? The reverse lights don't work? In my case, I had a 3-speed trans and I replaced it with a 4-speed. So, I wanted to install the...

    Unbalanced brakes

    Thank you all for your advices. Now I know all possible options for my problem : new wheel cylinders, an extra prop.valve or simply checking my brakes components. @AJ/FormS : I have original KH disk brakes and the valve is similar to the first one you posted. It has a side mounting tab. It's...

    Unbalanced brakes

    Effectively, I'll try to go to the simple stuff first :) Is this a proportional valve and can it be defective? It's original and is 53 y.o.

    Duster reverse dash light wire routing.

    Unfortunately, I don't understand what these pictures represent. Yes, with the manual transmission, there a wire from the clutch pedal to the starter relay. But it's distinct from the transmission reverse light switch and has no connection with it. The reverse lights wiring is simple. Do you...

    Duster reverse dash light wire routing.

    Ground I suppose And on automatic trans,the third one goes to the starter relay for neutral safety

    Duster reverse dash light wire routing.

    I installed a reverse warning light into my Demon and I connected it in parallel onto the white wire of the back-up lights. It's why I know which wire it is :) Automatic transmission and manual transmission wirings are similar...

    Duster reverse dash light wire routing.

    Engine side : the black wire comes from the transmission switch to the "Z" terminal of the bulkhead connector Inside : the wire is white from the bulkhead to the body wiring connector, then violet to the reverse lights.

    Duster reverse dash light wire routing.

    In 1971, it's the Z terminal (black wire) on the bulkhead connector. '73 is probably the same.

    Unbalanced brakes

    Hi all Today I was driving my Demon on a countryroad when after a turn, I saw a traffic slowdown in front of me. In fact, it wasn't a slowdown, but the cars were fully stopped and very close. I realized tardively and I had to make an emergency stop. Problem, the rear wheels block and the front...
