    Nittos and 17"

    No I have not had an interference. I did mock up cardboard templates to simulate the tires and rims on the car, before purchasing. Im glad I did, everything fits and is maxed out fit for my car.

    Nittos and 17"

    Rear tires have 1" between fender lip and widest part of the tire. So good clearance for bumps. The fronts...well good clearance except at full lock...very close. First drive thoughts... No rubbing, not even over larger rolling bumps. Tires hook well in straight line Hard cornering they do not...

    Nittos and 17"

    The 17" US Wheels came in at 28lbs, so yes heavier. Going from the Polys to Nittos...now that added some weight. Polys were 17lbs and Nittos 31lbs !

    QA1 UCA and LCA Upgraded

    Thanks to many posts on forebodiesonly.com I went with the QA1 UCA and LCA upgrades. Everything went well, no issues and QA1 product is top notch and fit perfectly. The 50+ year old LCA was very poor condition, UCA had newer ball joints so not as bad however I wanted a matched set for the...

    New Yukon 3.91 489 - Cranky Pants noisy

    Second trip out after adding +4 oz (8oz total) Friction Modifier did not seem to change any symptoms. So I decided to give it a more aggressive drive. WOW the 3.91 made a big difference for my stock 340 setup, even catch a "chirp" from 2nd to 3rd at WOT with stock 727 trans. I may just need to...

    New Yukon 3.91 489 - Cranky Pants noisy

    I spoke with Yukon and here was there feedback. I only have about 10 miles on the new diff, so it may need more breakin time. Im also going to add +4 oz Mopar Friction modifier before my next drive and Ill report back. __________________________________________ We offer the OEM style HD Sure...

    New Yukon 3.91 489 - Cranky Pants noisy

    Thanks in advance for any advice. I purchased a new Yukon SG 3.91 case 489 for my 73 Cuda and removed the peg leg 3.23. I have swapped diffs many times and never encountered an issue, except this time. Install went fine no issues, I 2x checked end play, added Valvoline 80/90 gear oil and...

    Stock 340 - Swap 3.23 for 3.91 gears - is Suregrip overkill?

    ok thx. Ill pickup the Yukon complete diff with SG and 3.91, then its an easy swap.

    Stock 340 - Swap 3.23 for 3.91 gears - is Suregrip overkill?

    Thanks in advance. I have a stock '73 340 with open diff 3.23. Im going to 3.91's to give it more bottom end. I wont mind the high revs, its a street car very little highway time. Will a suregrip be needed with 3.91's or with a stock 340, is a sure grip really overkill and I should just swap the...

    Heater Control Panel - White Highlight Paint?

    Thanks in advance. I want to refresh the white highlight paint that shows off the selections (high, low, off, etc) that has faded on my heater control panel. What paint is used for this? I might try a bright white touch up paint from local auto store or model paint, so long as it has a small...

    Still using an ammeter, but it doesn't work? Might be good to check wiring soon.

    Thanks for the feedback. The new wiring has no bulkhead connectors, unlike the factory wiring harness. The bulkhead is where I use to find the issues with melted wiring. Your right in regards to full power going into the car, however this must pass through a fusible in the engine bay first, so...
