    Change from rear drums to disc

    Hmm, that doesn't make any sense. The prop valve essentially limits the pressure to the rear to prevent the rears from locking up under light braking. With a front disk/rear drum setup you need to put in an additional valve to further restrict the drum pressure but with disk/ disk its the same...

    Change from rear drums to disc

    I did rear disk on my 67 and still run the factory proportioning block without issue.

    Borgeson Steering box question

    In regard to the new hoses I would recommend finding a local shop to make you new ones or change the ends on your existing lines to fit the borgeson box. I ordered the ones they sell that are supposed to fit but after 60 yrs of replacement parts and engine swaps the lines that were on my PS pump...

    Upper Control Arm

    There was someone parting out a Cordoba on here not to long ago. You might check the parts car section and see if they still have them.

    NEW WHEEL ADVICE PLEASE

    Another thing to consider is tire budget. 15 inch tires in traditional 50-65 series muscle era dimensions are becoming increasingly rare and expensive. 17and 18 inch tires are more readily available and affordable overall. Some purist scoff at large diameter wheels on our cars but then again I...

    Borgeson Steering box question

    Haven't personally done it but don't see why one would not work on a 73-79 car. Chrysler use the same factory box from 62-79 on all a/b/c/e bodies. Somewhere along the way they changed from 1 1/8 sector shaft to 1 1/4 but other than that there should be no reason it won't work. Most likely your...

    Parts value

    Im curious what that trim piece is actually called. my car was de-trimmed but post paint some of the holes where this piece of trim sits got pushed through the new paint when installing felts. I tried to find replacment piece thinking I would just use the trim there rather than repaint the whole...

    15x8 for the front of 1971 satellite

    Yes you can. Its all about backspace and tire choice. Since you are looking to use a wider wheel I assume you are looking at no taller than 65 series tires so you should be good up to a 245 if you get the backspace right. A good rule of thumb I have read is look for combinations that provide no...

    My brother just bought this car...

    73 was a bridge year. phasing out the 340 and phasing in the 360. You could get either in 73.

    Hellcat Headlights swap?

    I actually have considered this as well for my car. I have not been able to find a New Challenger at the yard to get the measurements but after looking at the buckets online it appears there is no center groove between the lights for the Grille split the older cars require. I am sure with...

    My plastic rallye dash bezel has cancer

    Did you scuff and primer first? Usually when paint lifts its because the surface prep was not up to par and it never properly bonded. Rattle cans work well if you just treat them as a medium to deliver paint and not as a painting solution. By this I mean scuff the surface, wipe down with wax...

    17" Rims on a B body

    I'm running 17" on my 67 Coronet. 275 40 17 rear 235 40 17 front. Since you have a 72 you could probably go as big as a 305 in the rear since later model b-body cars already had wider fender well room.
