That is awesome. It is those darn cable guides that get worn down enough it allows the cables to separate from the gear just far enough that the gear starts to slip. Kudos for your efforts!
Nice job not cheap I bet. I couldn't find any parts or anyone to repair my gear box so I filed the inner part of the block and shimmed the back side to bring the cables closer to the gear and works great. That was 4 years ago I did that and is still working but would rather have done what you did.
That's a great idea. Actual wasn't too bad. $225 a set for case hardened steel.
That's not bad at all and your fixed right. I am in the middle of restoring my car and haven't got to the sun roof yet so will be nice to see how yours turns out and learn from how you fixed yours.
I am taking notes on parts location and appreciate your input thanks.
I am restoring a 1973 Dodge Dart Sport and need all the rubber and seals. Do you know where i can go to buy parts. Thanks
Here is what appears to be the best source for seals
Yes these posts are what is most likely bad if your sunroof won't operate.
I'll have to get an order of 6 put together he'll make them. I'll contact the few others that are interested and try and get an order put together. Please send me a private message so I can contact you when we proceed.
Hi i just joined here and found this.was checking because i have a Y 28 Code 73 340 sunroof 4 speed AC car with lay down back seat and know it is rare..Did you get the list together
the research that i have found is on 340 cars with V21 only had a blacked out hood with no scoops.. the only Duster option that got scoops was for the twister package. If you look at the 73 sales book it will show that with an * And the only part # for scoops for A body's were twister and darts
73 matching numbers 340 auto console p/s p/b white bucket seat black interior b5 blue
I am not sure if My340 is still doing this. I have started a Mopar Sunroof Registry at www.moparsunroofregistry.com if you would like to participate.
All ready on yours I think.
That's a possibility but fyi, He hasn't been here on FABO since May 25, 2017.
Thanks Mike. Yeah, I saw that he has not been on here in a while. I think I read in one of his posts somewhere that he ended up selling his car, and therefore he likely has lost interest in maintaining the 340 sunroof A-body registry that he took care of. I wish I could contact him to see if he would be willing to pass on his registry to supplement the Mopar Sunroof Registry that I have started. Do the moderators have access to members emails? If so, any chance you could drop him a message and let him know I would like to reach out to him and see if he is willing to pass on his registry info? Thanks in advance!
