    Another C body guy joins.

    Hello to all. I am new to the FCBO forum so, in keeping with suggested procedures, I am here to introduce myself. I'm the relatively proud owner of a 65 Sport Fury that I paid way to much for thinking I'd just drive it like it was. That lasted about fifteen minutes until my perfectionist genes...

    Mopar electronic conversion epic fail.

    Jumping + battery terminal to coil + didn't work. Ballast resistor supplied with kit is 1.7 ohms. Stock is 1.8 Earlier DC kits use a 1.25 resistor.

    My Unicorn, eh?

    Looking at the 66 parts book. It seems it could have been a by factory thing. Weather strip 23-63-112, Rear window 23-64-314. Both styles were offered for Dodge, Plymouth and Newport. The windows are different part numbers. But there is no indication of when one or the other was used. The...

    Mopar electronic conversion epic fail.

    These questions were asked in the first three posts. I also posted a pic of my ground system. You can check there. Modules have been tested locally and are good. Battery terminals are clean. Instructions are the same as on the internet. I do have some suspect wiring, but battery is good.

    Mopar electronic conversion epic fail.

    With the vendor on the phone, I checked the pickup coil resistance, and it was well within specs. It also generated a signal when I spun it with the plug hooked up to the meter. It also generated a weak spark at the coil when the distributor was hooked up and spun. Until it didn't. I have...

    Steering box blows a seal. Now what?

    More likely it's a hose if it's leaking that much. Seals usually, but not always, tend to seep rather than dump fluid.

    Rear axle bearing vendor choices

    Or possibly an 8 1/4 rear. But definitely not in an 8 3/4.

    My Unicorn, eh?

    I don’t know 66 as well as 68, but in 68 2 dr was glued in and 4 doors had the seal. I found this when looking for a nonexistent gasket for my rear window. I learned from the parts book, comparing the rear windows in 68. In this case could it be a Canadian thing? I know @Polara_500_Jr has a...

    Rear axle bearing vendor choices

    this looks like the "C" clip (retainer) from a 9.25. 8.75 uses nothing like this.

    Rear axle bearing vendor choices

    that Motive Gear C clip is not used in an 8 3/4 rear...in an 8 3/4 the bearing is pressed onto the axle shaft...those clips are used in the rears where you pull the rear end cover ,remove a pin and the clip goes into a groove cut around the end of the axle to hold the axle into the side gear of...

    Steering box blows a seal. Now what?

    Perform step 2 first, step 1 and 5 may not be necessary. I would THOUROGHLY clean the area and pinpoint the leak. Do use care as I have heard of fires if the PS fluid hits the exhaust manifold.

    Stupid Key Question

    There have been many variations over the years. Some earlier cars have "square" heads. Make sure the grooves are the same. Giving it a good brushing on the wire wheel can't hurt.

    I need tips for installing transmission cooler lines...

    The mild steel ones are pretty flexible, stainless not so much. Steel lines, just wrap those in something (so as not so scratch new paint) and pull them through. As long as you don't kink them you can bend to fit once in place. I struggled with stainless on fitment and then the fittings would...

    Rear axle bearing vendor choices

    Yes I tried looking through several different C-body cars and years and they just showed the US Standard Gear offerings. But it seems when you look up the bearings by part number, these are the total offerings by rock: BCA NBA7 Bearing & Race Set $34 NATIONAL A7 Bearing & Race Set $45 SKF BR7...

    AVS2 650 CFM on a 383-2, tuning help needed

    A friend and i both have AVS carbs on our Mopar and noticed the same hot start issues. I noticed my car likes a partial throttle when hot and i let it sit for >15 minutes (a good heat soak i guess). This is from a 1973 Chrysler owners manual:
