so far only one problem. the tie rods need to be lowered,with this axle, to clear the springs. i got the tie rod drop blocks from sid.the steering arms,out at the spindle area where tie rods bolt on,will need to be drilled out to 9/16" to bolt on drop blocks.sid has a very good tech article on his ...

all rods from the master cylinder should be removed before sending in for core charge , also remove the studs because you dont get new studs in your reman master

cool I imagine i will have to remove it to restore the floor panels.
thanks WD

A few questions, regarding the stock steering column: 1) it has a grinding noise coming from the actual column shaft could the shaft be bent? 2) how interchangeable are the mopar family steering columns between cars and trucks? 3) like to get some input on those that have tried it or the viability o...

thats a kind of hydraulic ram set isn't it?

It is really not hard to paint a whole truck , even custom paint jobs are fairly easy, the cost of mine was less than $500 , that was a gallon of base coat metallic, then a coat of pearl and clear coat with hardener and fish eye remover and flow enhancer. all at TCP global , i painted a whole truck ...

yeah I saw that episode also and the show was called Fantom works they are located in Norfolk Virginia. I wonder where they got the pop up filler cap from as it did not seem like something they made in the shop. it was a nice clean set up. I too am looking to relocate my fuel tank because I'm tired...

Nice. How's that affect your straight-line driving? I've heard nasty rumors that running wider tires like that on these trucks can really make your truck wander on the road. I had 235/75r16's on it before. The new tires actually track a little better. It's a little harder turning the wheel at very ...

As of today it would be this one, Now to find that better background. http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a104/skipsneon/1969%20Dodge%20D%20100%20HotRod/100_3505.jpg http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a104/skipsneon/1969%20Dodge%20D%20100%20HotRod/100_3508.jpg Is it to low? whats your formula for the ...

but I understand what you guys are saying old oils for the old motor trans and diff, in the process of rebuilding all the brakes and the hydro clutch and slave cyclinder any one got extra parts, drums and shoes are good btw. I'd suggest looking at buying the stainless steel lined brake & clutch mas...

Hello all. I just installed new aftermarket wheels on my 1965 D200 and I have a question. When I'm driving down the road between 35-45mph I get a vibration that wasn't there before. I just had all 4 wheels rebalanced (after 1 day) and this improved it,(now it vibrates between 30-35) but did not eli...

i had the same problem please check your drive shaft, the difference in the diameter of the wheels might increase the stress on an already well worn drive shaft , in my case it was a worn spline on the yoke, something I would have never thought of since the universals were ok, my old truck was a 70....

did I ever tell you guys that these trucks are so ugly they are beautiful. BTW dot 4 is compatible with 3

Analogy: Engines of the swept era were designed to run on "0ld" leaded gas. Using "new" unleaded gas eats up the valve seats and destroys them. actually according to my automotive machinist , Mopar guy for 40 years, he says that some seats burn and some dont I use a led additive but not all the tim...
