hi guys, lots of enthusiastic posts on folks fitting bigger rims and low profile rubber. On reflection, any comments on how the car feels ref Road feel, tyre noise, traction, braking etc.. Just curious as I’ve considered going to bigger rims on my 73 Roadrunner. Respectfully not interested in...

Hi guys, my steering coupler is flopping around as the internals must be worn out. Not the tag joint which is fine, but the metal coupler above that as seen in the pics Can anyone tell me what parts I need as I keep getting pre 73 options which I suspect are different. On a separate note, I...

Guys, I have a rumbling coming fro the pulley on my power steering pump. The pulley can be moved back and forth and easily deflected with a screwdriver. Assuming the bearing is worn out? Never seen a rebuild kit with bearings just seals.

i have some poly bushes ready to fit. If anyone has done this job and has tips I'd be grateful. I.e. Do I need to jack the car to take weight off the suspension first, or do I just remove and fit regardless?

Ok guys, new ignition switch wired in with new key/barrel. 1973RR. Wiring is like for like in the connector block. Motor spins over on ACC1 position which is one stage too early. Instead of dash lights/stereo lighting up the motor cranks on first switched position. Anyone come across this? Lots...

Guys, I'm trying to track down some vibration and have a question. I pulled my driveshaft to inspect the yoke on it and considered replacing it. Here's the thing. My slip yoke is unusually long (I think) as the measurement from centre of UJ to end of yoke is 9". Most listed yokes are somewhere...

Guys, could use some advice here. Am I right in thinking that I can upgrade my 73 Roadrunner front brakes to 11.75" using for example, 1978 Córdoba rotors.? I need to know that they will fit my 73 up spindles. The second question is that I presume I also need the correct brackets to mount...

I'm fitting headers to my 340 Roadrunner (1973) and it looks like I need a bit more clearance. Can I wedge the engine mounts with a spacer? It would be easier with the old type biscuit mounts but I have the later mounts and can't see an obvious way of spacing them.

Hi guys, been installing a new headliner and measured everything for fit except the dome light screws, thought it would be obvious! Can anyone kindly measure the exact distance from the centre of rear screen to centre of dome light? I really don't want to mess this up as everything else has...

I'm wondering if any of the later C/B bodies have rotors that can be simply swapped in to replace the stock rotars on my 73 RR? I've searched but not found anything beyond SSBC, Willwood etc..

Hi guys, received my '73 Roadrunner headliner bows from Dantes. The invoice inc ten bucks for now retainers but non were supplied and the packing notes states 'no retainer needed'. I can live without the ten bucks but can anyone help with how the bows stay in place without swinging around 180...

Thinking about fitting a pair to my 340 as I've read good things, but not from anyone who has used them long term. They would replace my stock J heads which have the1.8 valves. '73 Roadrunner with 3.23 rear, XE268 cam and Mahle pistons nominally rated at 10.1 comp. Any testimonials or...

My car came without headliner or bows. I intend to order a set but don't know how many bows I should have. Also, with a Bright Blue interior should my headliner be blue or cream or other? Thanks for any info.

Guys, been offered a near new 2.5" stainless exhaust system Comes from a 1967 B body and I want to fit to my 73 RR. Both cars are small block and it includes headers. Any idea if it will fit?

If anyone needs any pointers on this job, let me know. I did it over a couple of weekends and after wrestling/cutting/prying the first set of bushes out I soon arrived at an easier method. I did the whole job without having to break any ball joints open although I chose to replace the sway bar...

Hi guys, I'm assuming this is straightforward, but I intend to fit two good bucket seats from a '73/4 Charger into my '73 Roadrunner to replace the badly damaged/worn bench seat. I'm aware that the floor Pan needs drilling for the buckets. Anything I'm missing here before I proceed?

Any advice appreciated on this matter. I fitted a brand new set of WV 63 series steel wheels to my car today. Id recently tracked down some used oem Plymouth Division dog dish hubcaps. Fitted the new wheels and the hubcaps and went for a short drive. Arrive home and one of the hubcaps has...

Bit of a puzzle with this one. I thought there was a default setting as a starting point where when adjusting the upper control arms it was to have the rearmost adjuster pushed in towards the inner wing and the forward adjuster levered out so as to be away from the wing. However, having done...

Hi guys, got an option on a set of 255 x 50 x 17 tires for my roadrunner. Can anyone tell me if they will clear ok at the front end? I have stock oem disc brakes. Thanks.
