    A/C solenoid

    Those of you who installed an aftermarket A/C solenoid onto your carb; where did you get the power from? Did you splice into the compressor hot wire with a tap, or did you solder a wire into the comp hot wire? Wondering the best way to do this.

    Window Rebuild Kit

    I have a 72 Challenger that the windows are difficult to crank up and down & the glass rattles. Probably best to pull the door panel and put in new parts but have never done that in a challenger. Can someone recommend a kit and some tips to get this done?

    Fender Lip?

    I have 255/50-17 tires on the back of my 72 Challenger with 8" wheels. When I have someone sitting in the back and go over a bump the driver fender hits the tire. The fender has quite a lip on it so wondering if using a wood block and hammer is the best way to bend that lip up little to give...

    Opening Hood Scoops=Better Cooling?

    The hood scoops on my 72 Challenger are blocked with the original black plates. Is there any benefit to opening those to let hot air out while sitting in traffic? I know my newer 2021 Challenger has several hood vents to let hot air out. Just wondering.

    The rubber gasket on my 72 Challenger gas cap fell apart. The cap is painted and in nice shape so I don't want to replace it. Is there such a thing as a replacement gasket for these caps?

    Intermittent Headlights

    72 Challenger. When the high beams are on, I will drive for about 10 minutes and the headlights will start flickering on and off. If I turn the high beams off, no problems. I replaced the dimmer switch but that did not fix it. When the headlights go off, the running lights stay on. Seems like...

    Alignment off after rear-end swap

    I have a 72 Challenger that I just replaced the leaf springs (with ESPO 6 leaf) and swapped the OE 8.75 with a Dana 60. Before the swap, the car alignment was perfect. After the swap the car wanders to the right. I'm pretty sure what is happening is the rear geometry is now off. Since it now...

    Rear brakes locking

    I have a 72 Challenger I purchased recently with stock style front disc and rear drum. When I hit the brakes hard, both rear brakes lock up before the front ones appear to be applying. Since the front brakes are supposed to provide the majority of braking power; any ideas why this would be...

    8.75 to Dana 60 Swap

    Have a 72 Challenger with rear drum brakes. Will be swapping the 8.75 for a Dana 60 (Strange 60). Can anyone tell me if the OE 8.75 hard lines will fit the Dana 60, or if I need to order new lines?

    Squeaky Steering Column

    When I turn the steering wheel I hear a squeak like the bearings are dry. I know there is a bearing in the top of the column. What is the best way to lubricate that bearing short of disassembling the column?

    Challenger Instrument Lights

    The instrument lights on my Challenger are very dim. I have aftermarket gauges that share the same orange wire and the lights on them are fine, so don't think it is the dimmer. Besides changing the 1816 bulbs, is there anything else I could do to improve the lighting? I thought about LED lights...
