Parts help
Does anyone have a good source for parts? It seems like most things I look for are tough to find. I need a gas pedal, suspension stuff, sway bars (if there is any for a 68). I cant find a new pedal just people selling them on ebay for $200 for a really used one. Any help would be great. Thanks!

Re: Parts help
Actually, the internet search engines do a pretty good job of finding things. Sometimes you have to change parameters. For example: I may search for a part with a string such as "1968 Dodge D100 gas pedal" or "1968 Dodge D100 throttle pedal" or "1968 Dodge sweptline gas pedal".
Large hard parts, that do not typically wear out, are going to be pretty much used. The Thorps specialize in sweptline used parts and some new, see there web page and/or contact them with specifics: https://www.61-71dodgesweptlineparts.com/ Facebook also has several user groups specific to sweptlines. It is also a good place to find parts from other owners at typically reasonable prices.
As to your throttle pedal, Robin at easy (the actual name is blocked on this forum) -streetllc.com is offering reproductions for $65.

Re: Parts help
I have a stock front sway bar.
Im old enough to know better, but young enough to do it anyway.

Re: Parts help
The axle is specially forged with a flat pad for attaching the sway bar. It can be attached to a regular axle with a filler piece and drilling 2 holes thru the axle. It was an option pre 69. There are 2 styles of sway bar. Maybe early style and later style? I have both, but haven't studied them to determine the different applications.

Re: Parts help
Are you sure it was an option on early trucks? I couldn't find any mention of a sway bar/anti-sway bar in the 63-68 parts book, nor have I ever seen it mentioned as an option in any brochure. This is the 1st time I've ever heard of it being available before 1969.PwrWgnDrvr wrote: ↑Sat Nov 20, 2021 8:21 pmThe axle is specially forged with a flat pad for attaching the sway bar.
