    Accelerator assembly Question

    Good morning, can someone tell me what goes in that spot to keep the cable from sliding out of the big end of the hole? I don't think that oddball bolt was OEM, was it a plastic plug or nothing (just tension)? Just need to know what I'm searching for if it's missing something.

    E Brake Assembly Questions

    All I'm cleaning up my pedals and have a couple questions on e brake. The first one being the most important. I know people like pics, so added a couple before & after. 1. Can anyone confirm the length and thread for the studs? Mine broke off and not enough to be 100% of thread. 2. The...

    Heater Box - 70 Charger

    I'm now working on the non-AC heater box for my 70 Charger SE. Since there was a mouse nest and a lot of rust in it from sitting 40+ years, I bought a couple of used heater boxes for parts (generally listed as 68-70 heater boxes). As I've been sorting through the brackets and cleaning them up, I...

    Axle & Diff Rebuild Time

    Ok, so next up on my rebuild list is the rear axle and diff. 70 Charger SE, 383 HP, Auto, 8 3/4 Suregrip, 489 case (not sure of gear ratio until I remove the axles and pig). It was running/driving when parked in '83 (42 years ago) and everything spins. Based on the odometer, it has around 114k...

    7290 U Joints

    Based on the part number in the picture (2781937) , I believe I need the 7290 U-Joints. Are they the same (front and back) on a stock 70 Charger, 383 HP, Auto, and 8 3/4 suregrip? The yokes measure the same, so guessing they are the same but looking to see what's normal. Do people rebuild them...

    Too much end play after rebuild

    Ok, so went through the Tom Hand book, rebuilt everything, took my time during reassembly, reviewed my disassembly pictures as I reassembled - paying special attention to thrust washers and anything that didn't look right (many other posts as I went along), and guess what - I have too much end...

    Another Torque Converter Question

    So I've read through many threads on Torque Converters; however, I'm still not sure what to buy for my car. 1970 Charger SE - 383 HP, auto, sure-grip (don't have the build sheet and haven't popped the diff yet to see what the ratio is). I'm keeping everything stock, I didn't crank the HP, I'm...

    Seal Rings for Governor body - what type

    Mine had one that hooked together on the ends and one that didn't hook. The rebuild kit seems to have 2 non hooked ones for replacement. As I know (based on my other question) that someone has it apart, what is correct (books don't show it clearly). Thanks Ross

    727, Rear Clutch - Correct Thrust Washer

    For the rear clutch subassembly, I think this thrust washer should be replaced. I don't match any in the thrust washer kit - all the similar sized ones have tabs on them Should I just clean up the original? Thanks for any advice or hints on where to buy / part number for the correct replacement.

    Reaction Shaft Bushing Removal

    All, does the bushing look bad enough to replace? It's discolored but I don't feel any grooves. I have the bushing, but not sure how to extract the old one. Is my only option a chisel - not really a lip behind it to get a bushing driver in there. Thanks in advance Ross

    Transmission Pump Question

    All, on the reaction shaft there are what looks like ball bearings (see pic). Are those supposed to move or spin at all (they don't currently). Also on the pump there is a tiny indent (2nd pic). Anything to worry about - might have been there since it was made. Thanks Ross

    Rear Axle Brake Clips - 70 Charger with 8 3/4

    Does anyone have the quantity, type, and location of the brake line clips that are welded to the rear axle? I have 1 that's currently in place and what looks like 2 other locations where they "may have been" at one time. I'm going to remove the diff and axles for rebuilding/replacing bearings. I...

    Bad Lower Ball Joint out of the box?

    I've been assembling the front suspension on the K-frame. I attached the lower ball joints (both new sourced from the same place) - one feels stiff and the drum stays vertical. The other side feels loose and the drum flops out. What say the experts - is the "loose" one bad out of the box...

    Does anyone use David Wise's Master Restoration and Judging Reference Manual (questions/issues)?

    I bought it about a year ago and have been relying on it for finish info, part numbers, finding date codes, etc. It seems like a good reference overall; however, I ran into an issue and wondering what other people have found. About a month ago, the shop doing my metal/body work called me and...
