    Cassette player restoration

    Just to add to this, if anyone has a factory radio with the 7 pin pigtail you can add an aux input to it fairly easily without having to use the cassette player and tape adapter. I added one to my New Yorker years ago. The factory plug has a pinout like this: 1 - 12 V + (red to cassette...

    Can someone ID this front sub-frame?

    I agree. Looks like a 65 only big block frame. You have to modify and weld on your 67 style mount, or find the oddball 65 only bracket. Problem is, many blocks don't have the extra hole on the front side to accommodate it.

    Klunk when shifting

    I get the concern, I don't drive it much these days. It'll get its turn at some point. I had another 9 1/4 to go in but it was almost as bad. That one had a sure grip in it though, I plan to go through the rear end when I put it in.

    Klunk when shifting

    Not loose enough for stuff to flop around, but loose enough to cause a clunk. Pretty common on 9 1/4's. The 9 1/4 in my '85 W150 you can physically see the yoke get sucked in when you put in reverse, if you stand by the wheel and look in. It bangs like crazy, but goes down the road fine.

    Klunk when shifting

    My 73 New Yorker developed a similar klunk the last few years I was driving it. I assumed it was the crush sleeve in the 489 case loosening up. I have a couple of other center sections to swap in to see if it fixes it, but never got around to it before I tore it apart to fix the rust on it.

    WANTED 70-73 rear stub isolator

    That looks like it yeah. I could probably reuse my bottom side, it's really only the top one that the rubber has split and squished out. I'll have to see if he'd willing to ship to Canada.

    Removing Frame from Car without pulling front end

    On the '71 up frames there is provision to put a bolt there but the factory did not. That is where the older non isolated frame ended like in pic CHP posted, but a '73 frame like yours has the longer "legs" that extend past the transmission crossmember, that have the larger bolt and bushings...

    Removing Frame from Car without pulling front end

    I'm sure it can be done but if you forgot something you have a good chance at buckling the fenders. I pulled the frame out of my '73 New Yorker in the fall and had the front sheetmetal off in a few hours.

    70-73 stub frame bushings

    Anybody able to measure the back of the later style frame for me? I have the body mount areas and floor pretty much done, working on the frame next.

    70-73 stub frame bushings

    Is anyone with a removed frame able to take a few measurements for me? The fsm doesn't really show the dimension for the rear body mount area. It gives the references for the holes, but not the frame itself. I'm wondering about the height of frame at the very back, and the distance where it...

    70-73 stub frame bushings

    The smaller bottom side ones have 3466018 number on them, but I couldn't come up with anything. The assembly with the sleeve and washer likely used a different number anyway. In the mean time I've been doing some rust repair. Years ago someone patched the driver side floor with a flat piece of...

    When I see a beautiful car like that sell for $8500, I have to ask myself what am I working on my rusty junk for lol

    70-73 stub frame bushings

    Yeah thats crusty too but at least you have something to go by if someone wanted to fix it. It definitely needs upper and lower control arm bushings but I'll probably do them next year sometime, I bought upper and lower ball joints and tie rods a few years ago but never did get around to putting...

    70-73 stub frame bushings

    Well it's out and it's rough lol. The rear mount pockets stayed with the body. It would be nice if I could find a nicer frame but I'll have to make do with this one. It's been patched a bunch over the years with 1/8 plate to where the sides and bottom were all replaced and only the top that...

    70-73 stub frame bushings

    Thanks for the comments. I agree with the thoughts on hockey pucks being a poor choice. I just mentioned them because I seen some comments about them in past threads doing a search. The ones Matt posted look like they would work if cut down. The ones on my '90 Ram look similiar but are also a...

    70-73 stub frame bushings

    I have to pull the stub out of my 73 New Yorker for some rust repair and most of the rubber mounts look pretty rough. I doubt there is a source for new ones but did anyone else come up with something that is easier to find? Maybe truck cab mounts would work? I saw in another thread someone...

    The 1973 Chrysler Thread

    You’re right. I noticed that as well when I posted the build sheet pic. I thought the guy I bought it from said it had a vinyl top but maybe it never did. It was painted at least once before but now that I think about it there was no evidence of moulding holes when I was fixing the rust under...

    The 1973 Chrysler Thread

    oops, Put it in the wrong thread at first. I'll add mine to the list. B9 '73 New Yorker Brougham. Bought it in 2006 I think it was as a roller. The previous owner had pulled the 440 as a spare for his other cars. Nice guy, big into Imperials, had like 5 or 6 of them. I tried to get a 440 for it...
