    Source for a bracket inside the fender. What’s it called?

    Thanks for the reply. I tried AMD and Classic industries but have no stock of passenger door glass till mid July. I have tried other companies but do not ship to South Africa. I have sent an email to see if my courier company can collect and waiting for reply.

    Source for a bracket inside the fender. What’s it called?

    I have not got this on my 71 Cuda. I know what I have got is a R/H passenger side door glass shattered. I have just fitted central locking and electric windows and now need new glass. Not a happy chap at the moment. Any suggestions for new glass.

    I have recently completed my 71 Plymouth Barracuda and purchased allot of panels from Classic industries. From the fire wall complete front end including the bumper. They run allot of specials over $300, one time it was 30% discount which was a large saving. Best of luck

    8 3/4 slip diff

    Thank you for all the input. I was told that it does reduce the friction but then again I dont know. The cones are good with no wear.
