    Maybe thier engines but they have numerous recalls and serious defects like every other manufacturer. "Toyota has had several frame-related issues, including recalls and warranty extensions, primarily affecting Tacoma, Tundra, and Sequoia models from specific model years. These issues often...

    I'm asking for your input on this. American car/truck buyers vs. foreign vehicle buyers.

    I`ve owned TWO foreign cars in my life, a POS Honda I got cheap and flipped it as soon as I bought it and a BMW I got from a relative to fix and sell for a profit. American vehicles may not be the best but I don`t care - MOPAR OR NO CAR for me. My wife unfortunately bought a Subaru after three...

    R & R 8 3/4 axle bearings with just hand tools, no press?

    Nothing "wrong" with them, I used in them my `69 Barracuda street/strip build but for street cars that see aggressive cornering I prefer the factory tapered style.

    R & R 8 3/4 axle bearings with just hand tools, no press?

    I used a cutoff wheel, chisel and hammer to cut the old ones off and cleaned up the bearing surfaces with a stone and 400 grit paper myself but decided not to risk damaging my $200+ Timken bearings and had the local machine shop press them on along with one missing wheel stud for $60.

    R & R 8 3/4 axle bearings with just hand tools, no press?

    The FSM instructs you to use a chisel to remove the old ones.

    R & R 8 3/4 axle bearings with just hand tools, no press?

    My concern is the wall thickness of the pipe does not spread the load enough along with sharp blows instead of steady pressure might distort the bearing.

    `70 road runner, FC7, 383, 727 It`s waited long enough, finally time to get it done.

    Keeping with the "this ain't no $100k + blank check" restoration i dug out my two used 489 case 3.23 sure grips, one bought at a swap meet the other I think from a parts car. One had a 7260 u-joint and the other one which I used had a 7290. Not sure how tight it is but it will do for now, if it...

    R & R 8 3/4 axle bearings with just hand tools, no press?

    I was thinking the same thing! Maybe he just didn`t want to move his camera but I would have stood it up with the flange on some wood instead of chasing it across the bench.

    R & R 8 3/4 axle bearings with just hand tools, no press?

    Guy does it with green bearings but should be the same for tapered bearings, seems a bit crude but looks to work just fine. Doesn`t say what diameter pipe he used but I can measure that.

    I know this is a super long shot but before I hand fabricate patch panels anyone have good pieces to repair the areas?

    1970 road runner driveshaft length?

    No, mainly because I don`t want to pay their prices, rather find one off a small vendor or someone just selling extra parts.

    1970 road runner driveshaft length?

    My road runner didn`t come with a driveshaft and it`s currently under restoration so I can`t measure. I know I can have one made but would prefer an original one, what is the length? If anyone has one local to me (New Hampshire) or going o be at Carlisle selling one let me know. 1970, 383, 727...

    E-bay description says they are exact to NOS, but are they? Inline tubes also has a kit but they don`t say how correct they are? Pardon Our Interruption... 1970 Mopar B-body 3pc Rubber Brake Hose Kit, Drum Brakes, 9pc Any other sources, I just need the hoses, don`t need the tee?
