Read the thread in the true man’s office lol. Amazing work, I mean just awesome and inspiring. Any updates? supplies and parts,especially since AMD discontinued so many mopar parts especially a body it’s still has been a crap shoot even in the states. I have 70-72 duster parts on backorder and...

Thanks for the input. Much appreciated!

Hey Friends Looking to help a family member add a factory 1971 or 1972 “only years” Scamp no darts he has several and only 318 no slants as it’s one of the only A bodies He doesn’t have. only 71-72 factory cars and not later years dressed up as 71/72 please. He only collects 68-72 mopars only. I...

Same here. First time I left the state in years lol

Sorry rusty. Was directing that to Dan but hit the reply button.

Makes sense. We’re you at Carlisle this year. Think I saw you but can’t recall. Jr.

Thanks Dan.

Much appreciated

Thanks Garrett. Good to know they work fine with non OD 833. Is the shape a go for a bench or bucket seat 70-72 duster/demon. Thanks

Rusty. I assume this is out of a 833 OD. It’s supposed to be from a duster as demons were gone in 73 but maybe a feather duster, scamp or something similar like darts after the gas crunch. So this shifter has the same shape and will work with an A body 833 non OD and OD trans? Would you put a...

Thanks professor. Is this hump the same as would be in 70-72 duster stick car or any a bodies. (essentially 67-76 I believe). I have one OEM cutout of a parts car but can’t get to in till a few days. Wanted do know if I can use this hump in a 4 speed swap down the road on a 70-72 duster. Thanks...

Hey guys. Any idea what this shifter is from and if this trans hump is the correct 67-76 3/4 speed hump. I have an OEM one I cut out of a parts car years ago in storage waiting for a car but it’s buried and at another location and the pics I’ve seen online I can’t confirm. Appreciate your help...

Thanks yea I saw the %s. That helps. 1834 tor red duster 340s made. I’m sure more autos then sticks but again just assuming. thanks for the site!

That white top and stripes make that green pop. If I recall isn’t Sherwood green close to a olive drab almost like verdoro green for GM cars specifically Pontiac. Being a military guy I’m sure that color hit home for you. I worked with the DoD before local LE career so thanks for your service...

Hey guys any further breakdown on the 15,681 total 72 duster 340s other then the total built and % totals via color and some options. Not sure if the white book or any one has any other data other then what’s available at mymopar.com and the Hamtramck historical site to break it down further...

Oh I’m keeping all the 9” hubs. I saw a pair sell for more then I care to mention as they aren’t really around anymore even at pick apart yards and soooo many were thrown away or scraped. I think they stopped making the hubs in the 90s maybe sooner

Thanks kosmic. I actually did that other day and nice to see it was done recently minus the wheel cylinder may replace. The bearing were good and I repacked it all, cleaned the drums and shoes, adjusted it and reinstalled. Working good enough for a slant with 9” drums. No sense in new shoes or...

Stay motivated. Just imagine that done beauty l

Mike that’s whT I’ll be doing. The other is an aftermarket drum and not swaged, it’s going to be upgraded to disc one day in the next year or so, so rather not waste time and money or worry if I drill to see that I will ruin the hole for the stud to press fit on

Thank you brotha man and YES I KNOW I GOTTA GET THAT DRUM OFF!!! Lol I was a young mechanic before going in the service/DOD and then LE municipal. So my days in 90s as a mechanic/tech at small garages and monro and midis, I did a few brakes jobs and drums back then and I also have never seen...

Yea Joey that’s what I remember from when these cars were still 10-20 year old cars, even my a body Oldsmobile had a similar setup if I recall, and they were used during the assembly line to keep drums on while in rotation on line before final drum/brake adjustment these clips look like little...

Guys and gals, assuming without removing the swaged studs. Remove hub to clean and adjust. I just want to ensure wheel cylinder is ok. Was stopping ok for manual 9” drums. If not able to remove them I’m going to finish bleeding and flushing and adjust the brakes again and slap tires back on till...

BFH and loose starwheel failures till I saw these little critters. Any idea what they are and how to remove Thanks guys

hope these pics are better? Are these the swedge that was mentioned?

Yea appears the pics aren’t clear. Here is a clearer one of the piece holding the drums onto the studs on only the front left wheel/drum wont let me zoom in and upload pics. But if u zoom in you can see little round clips almost look like splines thin washers

If you find that article on removing the Swedge much appreciate. I will research as well. Def want to get that drum off and check the shoes and cylinder. Can’t imagine it’s been on for 50 years and not leaking. But 200 miles so far and master hasn’t gone down a millimeter so maybe I’m lucky but...

Hey guys my 72 duster that I aspire to make a resto mod has been fun so far after tune and typical to do items. Today while adjusting all the brakes I noticed she’s a 9” manual drum which works fine for now with the slant 6 and cruising around town and non traffic late night interstate runs...

Hey guys Sorry question I figured out when I went to take a second look. Disregard

Unless this can work which is unlikely I will be calling you guys this week. Been meaning to call. It’s been a while Thanks JR.

Thanks Dan
