Also changed the coil designed for Electronic Ignition. Some...

Re: closed knuckle dana 44

closed knuckle dana 44

I have a 66 Powerwagon with a Dana 44 front diff. About 2 weeks ago, the six "grade 8 bolts" that hold the spindle,backing plate to the steering knuckle on the drivers side had failed right after I hit the brakes to make a stop. Has that ever happened to anyone out here????

Re: Mopar Electronic Ignition Kit for 318 Poly (1961 D100)

Had one in my 66 powerwagon when purchased. Also have one in my 65 Barracuda Formula "S" . Once installed I never looked back. Just change your plugs once a year and check your timing maybe once or twice a year and your done.
