    68' Charger Front Disc Brake Question

    Ok, here are the pics of the passenger side. The pads anbd rotor actually look s good so I don't think they need ot be changed. I'll check the back drums now. Brake pedal is just spongy. Will also check to see if they need bleeding.

    68' Charger Front Disc Brake Question

    The car was redone 15 years ago. I am not positive. I think so but don't want to assume. I will have to take a wheel off to see.

    Starter Question

    I had thought of that. It bolts in tight against the block with no gaps but I thought there was a certain clearence that was required for the starter to engage the flywheel. Again w/o a lift it is difficult for me to see a whole lot.

    Starter Question

    I have the one below, 2 to solenoid, 2 to relay. Cable is in good shape. What would be wrong? Should I check and clean the battery post and positive cable end? Starter relay is new.

Concerning my starting issue, I bought a new mini starter (Powermaster Powermax PLUS Starter) and have installed it but instead of the sound I had before (the typical dead battery clicking fast clicking) it sounds like it thuds once or twice.
