  Wont start!

  By Dustem

  Haven't driven the car in several months. Leave trickle charger on battery. Electric holley blue pump is on switch in dash. Turned on pump no problem. Turn key to run position, no problem. As soon as the key is in start position I hear a click and dome light goes off. No power for lights or anything. After 15 minutes dome light comes back on, headlights work. Turn key to start again, hear click and lose all power. Battery is in the trunk. Wire ran to starter for power. Other than that all... Read more

  Self leveling trailer???

  By Ditcherman

  Question for the more experienced around here… The TL;DR: how much benefit would there be to a trailer that self leveled - side to side - while rock crawling/off roading? Some conversations in the hardcore corner about trailering on Rubicon and Poughkeepsie got my wheels turning here. I’m also curious as to how many accidents are caused by a trailer tipping over on an obstacle, or going over an edge and pulling the truck with it or at least causing a very precarious situation? Would love... Read more

  Air Gap hood clearance

  By Jarlaxle

  I...may not be selling my 73 Duster after all. I might be fixing it...so I want to avoid the screw-ups that result in thrown tools. Current setup is a Magnum 360 with an Edelbrock Air Gap intake, AVS carb, bogus 6bbl air cleaner, and stock hood with a Demon scoop. I want to replace this with a flat hood...but that Air Gap intake is tall. The question is: will the Air Gap intake clear a stock Duster hood? It's not clear with the current setup, but it looks like it would be VERY close. Anyone... Read more

  Proportioning Valve / Idiot Light: what gives ??

  By dartman59

  Hi there. 1971 Swinger with the 73+ front disc / rear drum upgrade that I’ve been running for over ten years. Recently, I replaced the master cylinder and the proportioning valve/brake warning switch, both of which I got from Dr Diff. That was about 500 miles ago, and no problems since UNTIL just a few days ago. I had set my parking brake, and, as usual, the bright red idiot light on the dash illuminated. Later in the evening, I started her up, released the parking brake, and the idiot... Read more

  Against the family wishes!

  By jinxd12

  New to the Mopar "muscle" scene but not new to wrenching on projects. I traded a Harley Ultra Classic 100th Anniversary for a 72 Dart Swinger that needs some work but is close to road worthy! The family is a Chevy blooded family so I'm going against the grain with this Dart. Lots of reading to still be done as nothing is similar to the chevy stuff we have worked on for years. No crazy plans for the Dart, it's getting a rear end built by AZ Differential (Nate) this week and hoping to get... Read more

  Half cab with roll cage questions.

  By brewchief

  Just picked up a half cab, planning on running it spring and fall and sometimes in the summer if the weather is bad so it needs to be relatively easy to remove and install. I want to continue running a full cage including kickers to the rear, looking for ideas on how people have done this. I'm thinking a stub that will go out the back of the cab with a removable down tube. Any thoughts from those that have done it?

  Minnesota FJ40 theft and recovery and… going back to 2013 - A long saga moving towards the next chapter.

  By jsweetd

  Hey everyone I have been a member for awile but never participated much. I appreciate all of the questions answered and problems solved from other owners experience. Here we go. Growing up my dad bought a 1979 FJ40 when I was 14 years old. He taught me how to drive manual transmission in St Paul along a dirt road that was destined to be the future interstate 35E which cuts through St Paul. The family loved that truck, my dad as I think all of us made it part of his identity. My sister and... Read more

  ID a part

  By Code54

  Today I noticed my heater is not putting out much heat, so I was looking under the hood and noticed these two unhooked connectors. I realize they don’t have anything to do with my heater issues, but I also have no idea what they go to. They are basically rubber boots with an electrical connection in the bottom that runs to a wire loom. Any ideas?

  Alternator on the brink??

  By miknoypinoy

  since I joined this forum and started modding my car I’ve been noticing everything now while it’s running. My voltage periodically stays around 12.4 during a stop at idle. Stays there while accelerating but jumps up to 14.3 while decelerating. Drops back down to 12.3 at a full stop at idle again. Then sometimes it stays at 14 all the time. Accelerating or idle. What you all think?

  Pic Request - Stock LC200 with 275/70/18s on stock wheels

  By awdbandito

  Hey all, I know this has been beat to death in the past, but I'm having problems finding or figuring out what I'm looking at. I just picked up a 2013 LC and it's running stock tire size. I want to go up as tall as possible on stock suspension without adding wheel spacers. I prefer my tires to stay within the wheel wells so I don't throw mud on the sides. It looks like 275/70/18 is what I'm left going with. Can anyone post a picture of their stock truck on 275/70/18s for me to reference... Read more
