Looking pretty good in the pictures, there Chris.

At least the weather's cooperating with you Chris...

On the torsion bar tool, that one's so specialized, it's hardly a fair test. I had borrowed one from a friend, and left it sitting on my counter at the parts store where I work for almost two weeks. Nobody figured out what it was for. None of the employees, not a single mechanic, or any of...

My cars were around 50/50. 66 Dart(Canadian Valiant) was power drum, 68 Dart 270 power drum, 72 Demon manual drum, and my current 70 Duster started life with manual KH disc brakes. I also had a 65 Fury II wagon with a manual single pot master cylinder and 11" drums all around...

Damn, I've wanted one of those trucks for years. Good score!

Holy crap Chris, that's an ugly find!

For me, once the air cleaner is off, it's just a matter of time before the air cleaner stud bites me on the wrist.

Most likely typo would be M instead of H. RH23F8R245671 makes more sense.

Looks like it started life as a 76 Duster, got a 73 rear bumper and a 72 Dart/Demon front end. Surprised he isn't selling it as a Demon.

Some pictures of progress on my engine swap. The Torker was never part of the plan, just to mask the lifter valley during painting. Still some hours to go before I'm ready to make some noise...

I got so tired of all the discussion, I just tell people the truth, I've got a 657 case in mine. Let them figure it out.

Isn't the friction modifier only for clutch type suregrips? To cure chattering frictions? I was told not to use it with my cone suregrip because it could cause slippage. I've never added it and never had any issues.

Does the original starter look like this one? http://www.ebay.com/ctg/Wilson-91-06-1837-Reman-Starter-Motor-Starter-/93731551 Or like this? Wilson 91-03-2806 Starter Motor | eBay

There is a 9 tooth direct-drive Prestolite starter listed for some 170 and 225s for 61-63. It's not one I've ever seen before. It looks very 50's, if you know what I mean. They don't list any "can-use" options, so you may need to stick with the original style starter...

I just looked it up, and my listing actually shows the ND starter as a substiute.

I like the wing, or stripe, but not both together.

Waiting in the ferry lineup, on my way back to Fantasy Island.

C130 has it. Torque is measured, HP is calculated.

I'd read that on 1998 and newer trucks, that the vin in each of the onboard computers needs to match, or the truck might not start, idle rough, and set the 'check engine' light. Is the VIN just needed for this check during startup? Does it just need to match the others, or does it need to be a...

I'd like to replace the worn out V6 in my Dakota with a 5.9. The one stumbling block is the computer. I can buy a reman unit that's programmed with the correct calibration, it just needs the VIN and milage flashed into it. If I have it programmed with my stock V6 VIN, will that work?

I took my Duster on a 2400km (1500mile) roadtrip 2 years ago, but I've driven it less than that total since...

Dakotas are heavy. Mopar Action weighed their 92 2wd, std cab, short box at 4100lbs. That's as light as they get. If you could shave 800-1000lbs off that weight, wouldn't you get better milage, and feel like you had more power? The OP did say "daily driver", right?

There are so many worse messageboards than Moparts. A couple of years ago, I was looking for some Jeep info, so I joined a Jeep board. I asked some technical questions about a bad fuel gauge. I got nothing but bad responses: "don't bother us new guy, use the search" , "mine doesn't work...

For me, it's Harleys that always want to deafen, I mean, race me.

I haven't bought much from ebay in the last few years. It was a lot better when it was people, rather than companies selling their stuff. The generic cut&paste auctions just kill me. I was looking for Jeep seatcovers, and there were hundreds of ads all from the same store. All with the same...

I've seen two different Valiants with the Rallye dash. Both were white 68's with blue interiors.

No great mystery with my screen name. I've used it for my email for about a zillion years. Ever have anybody call you by your FABO name out in the "Real" world?

After 4-6 hours I'd be worried about the hydraulic cylinder. You wouldn't leave your car jacked up on just a floor jack with no stands for that long, would you?

Do you have tailpipes? If your exhaust exits under the car, it's amazing how stinky it can get.
