    Front bench seat belt location

    I recently had my front bench seat on my 1974 Plymouth Duster re-upholstered. Came out really great, but now I don't know where the front seat belts pass through the rear of the seat. I have seen from some vendors they make plastic sleeves that get cut into the seats so that the seat belts have...

    Big block valve cover blocks heater blower motor

    Thanks for your reply. I believe you are suggesting cutting the corner off of the valve cover. I would have to get someone nearby to do the welding as I have never done any TIG work. I will take your suggestion into consideration. Thanks!

    Big block valve cover blocks heater blower motor

    Thanks for the reply! I checked their web site and the specs say it has a 1/4" shaft. My shaft is 5/16". Did it come with a sleeve?

    Big block valve cover blocks heater blower motor

    Just installed my 383 big block into my 1974 Plymouth Duster and I noticed that the TrickFlow Valve covers are blocking part of the hole for the non A/C Blower motor. I installed the TrickFlow Valve covers over the TrickFlow 240 heads with Harlan Sharp rockers. Does anybody have a solution...

    Duster front ride height

    Thanks for all of your replies. The front tires are probably too wide, but is a long story how I ended up with them. I completely understand the process of measuring drive line angles except that I was under the impression that raising the front would put more weight on the rear and as the axle...

    Duster front ride height

    I am getting ready to order a drive shaft and want to set the front ride height/rake angle for occasional drag racing before I check the drive line angles. I am running Mickey Thompson Street radials P255 R60/15 in the rear with Mancini Racing Springs and Caltracs. On the mostly stock front with...

    Front suspension set up and wheel alignment

    Did you mean binding at the LCA to K member pins? Because usually there is talk of binding at the strut rod heim joint near the front of the K member. I have installed the PST greasable pin kit with poly bushing in the LCA. I was thinking I could shorten the strut rods just a bit (1/16" ??)from...

    Front suspension set up and wheel alignment

    Wow, great tip on the Boreson box! I will have to do some checking with the rebuild kit from Doctor Diff. It seems like the tie rod sleeves are too long because by hand, I can't make the whole assembly as short as the old ones that are coming out. I don't want to tighten up the tie rod ends and...

    Front suspension set up and wheel alignment

    Just read the instructions on installing the Hotchkis adjustable strut rods. It says, "Next rotate/thead the body in or out to the desired length. Shortening the strut rod can dial in more positive caster." Sounds good but how long to adjust the rod? I guess I will have to measure the old strut...

    Front suspension set up and wheel alignment

    Can I use one of those ball joint/u joint tools you can borrow from the auto parts store to press in and out the Moog UCA bushings? I used one recently to remove LCA bushings. Or do I have to have the type like from Mancini racing? I imagine I could make the ball joint tool work, but have to...

    Front suspension set up and wheel alignment

    I think I will go for the moog kit. I see it comes with two bushings. Is that for one control arm so that I would need two kits? Are there instruction on how to orient the bushing to be able to move the front bushings away from the frame to get the top ball joints moving aft?

    Front suspension set up and wheel alignment

    Thanks for the speedy reply. Like many others on this forum, I prefer to do things myself. I will take your advice into consideration as I move forward and learn how to align myself.
