    Steering Gear Box leaking out the bottom seal

    By Hyper_pak

    My '76 Lite manual box, after I cleaned it, leaks out the bottom seal. I wondered why the steering arm was caked with grease and now I know why. Manual really doesn't call out a lube spec that I can see in my '76 FSM. Pack it with super heavy long fiber grease? I don't want to rebuild it if I can get it to stop leaking. Any Ideas?

    My new helper

    By rbkt65

    I was replacing a threshold and as usual, no light and flashlight in the mouth was too much. Wife not holding light where I needed it. Solution. Harbor Freight magnetic light on heel bar and it was just what the doctor ordered. Move it where I needed it and it was way better than a live assistant.

    Replacing fuel cell with reproduction tank and sending unit

    By Martina

    Hi all, hoping to get some much needed direction on this swap. On my 1967 barracuda notchback, I’m putting in a new tank. I ordered an aftermarket sending unit from eClassics. My concern is making sure the fuel reaches the pre-filter and Holley blue pump mounted to the lowest point on the frame near the rear tire. The sending unit hardline makes a tight 90 degree turn upwards. My thought was to attach rubber hose to the hardline, and bend it to make an inverted U shape. I have 6AN line... Read more

    Borgeson Power Steering Thoughts....

    By RustyRatRod

    I'm thinking about converting Vixen to power steering. With the manual transmission, I must admit it would be nice and the quicker ratio I'm sure would make her driving experience even more fun. Would some of yall who've made this swap tell me about it? Maybe what you like, what you don't if anything? For those who may not know, Vixen is a 64 Valiant 2 door sedan with a slant 6. Thank you.

    By abodyjoe

    Considering a lift

    By jrc4y4

    My car is in storage which keeps going up. $170 a month. No garage for me but have a couple options. Option one is I buy a Car Capsule to use under a car port. Building a garage isn’t in the cards. Option two is my dad is a Mopar fan. And I pitch him the idea of us putting a 4 post lift in his garage so he can still fit his cars. I already know the response will be concern with space. His cars fit fine as is. And he’s looked into a lift before. But I think the concern was cost plus it takes... Read more

    Wanted 225 slant 6

    By Fishbait76

    I own very original 1964 Valiant V100 in mint condition. The original numbers matching 170 is what I am enjoying but would really have a good running original or a rebuilt. I would like a motor that is fairly close in year around my valiant if possible to retain its originality. If you were anyone you know, may have something available please let me know I would be interested. Thanks.

    Replacing 318LA - hard choices..

    By JozefJ

    Hi all, Last month I drove my '73 Dart Sport, with the 318LA engine, to the winter storage. I know the block is leaking oil, and the crank isn't what it needs to be anymore. Also the block is quite 'tired' from old age and modifications. So i decided I want to replace the block come spring, so I'm ready for the summer season next year. However.. The choice as to which engine to put in is hard for me to make.. Will I search for another 318LA (complete or short block) and do I 'upgrade' it... Read more

    Yep, looking to make a jig to measure an unused unknown ancient small block cam. (20 + years old). Would like some used smooth small block cam bearings, 3 or 4 would do it. Need shipped to 19320. Will be selling cam once I get specs fingered out.

    What Has Hot Rod Come To?

    By SpeedThrills

    Hot Rod, for so many years, was the Bible. Terrible. They refer to a Super Bee as a Plymouth throughout the article. Maybe they’ll fix it by the time you guys read it. Dave Kindig’s 1,200-HP Killer Bee Turns a ’69 Plymouth Into a Road-Racing Weapon

    Vacuum advance mia

    By jrdngruber

    So the duster I’ve got has an external msd ignition box, 318 auto. The dizzy hasn’t got a vacuum advance on it. I’m not sure there’s a brand on it, I’ll have to do some more looking. It runs good, should I look at possibly at putting a vacuum advance on it? Thanks!
