Re: advice 1970 b body seats,

Thanks for the insight, I had highbacks in a previous 69 I used to own, the empty passenger seat would fold forward under heavy braking, really irritating! need to look inside them a bit closer I reckon. :)

advice 1970 b body seats,

Hi all, need advice on a pair of 1970 highback seats, b body. They have a push button on the side of the seat that moves ok when pressed, but I took the back off both and there is no mechanism behind the buttons, they don't lock in the upright position so tilt forward without having to depress the b...

overdriven

Thanks guys for hearing me out,it always helps to bounce ideas around before making a mistake! So I think the best thing would be to get the whole kit from gear vendors in a few months when my finances are in better shape. The 440 in my charger has an A833 behind it and rear ratio of 3.23:1 and runn...

But I do enjoy reading about others and come here every other day at least. This is a great club to ...

mopar overdrive

Hi all, Has any member used an overdrive system on their mopar,I am considering a gear vendors overdrive unit as the kits are readily available though a little pricey when you consider shipping and VAT etc. Also see a couple of used set up's available in the US, nothing for a Mopar at the minute tho...

Same message here,forget rechroming in the UK,I have spent around 4K on chroming of motorcycle parts and they ruin pretty much everything with overpolishing. The best one I spoke to 6 weeks ago quoted me 700 quid per bumper with a six month wait. Go to ebay US and buy AMD,speak to Ron at sts imports...
