Mopar Dana 44 I parted out a 74 W100 a few years ago and all I have left is the front axle and don't have a need for it. For those that don't know 72-74 1/2 ton pickups used the larger bolt pattern, 5 on 5.5 and are very hard to find now. This bolt pattern showed back up starting in 80 on 4x4s...

IH cast Dodge 318, core engine This is an odd one that few know even exist. IHC cast some blocks for Mopar. This is the second one I’ve had, both 318s. This engine was a warranty engine (see tag picture) so it could be “correct” for just about anything if you’re doing a resto. The engine isn’t...

If wide open throttle is fine then fuel delivery doesn't sound like a problem. The fuel pressure regulator might be the problem. I had a similar drivability issue in a 89 New Yorker and the regulator was the problem. Check the vacuum line going to the regulator, bad vacuum signal and it won't...

Take what you have with. The wheel stud for length reference and the hub to get a measurement for the new knurl size. Done that dozens of times working the counter at NAPA.

What is the problem? To short? To tall? To long? Wrong shape? Has the seat in the truck been replaced at some point from an 80's pickup?

Any good parts store.

1975 Dodge D100 short box parts truck w/title This is a parts truck that’s been a parts truck for the last few owners. So to start with there isn’t a usable body panel on this rig. However... it still has some rather desirable options, and that all important piece of paperwork. It looks like...

I'll split the set if someone is just interested in the engine or transmission.

I have a couple of cabs I don’t need anytime soon and should sell. One is from a 1972 D300 and the other is from a 1973 D200 ClubCab. These will work from 72 through 80 but have very specific details for 72/73. If you are restoring a 72 or 73 these are exactly what you need. Both need some work...

It is an 8 3/8. That IS NOT a typo!!!! There are NO OTHER errors in my first post either.

The 8 3/8 (that's how Mpoar reefers to them in vans and pickups) was used with 400 trucks, 4WD and both combined. Ramcharghers got them too, 2WD and 4WD. And there was a version that was used in 3/4 and 1 ton vans in the 80's. I've beat the living hell out of them with no issues ever.

Ice blue, PB1. A very very very common color for Mopar all through the 80's on everything they made.

Mopar big block short tail shaft transmission I parted out a 73 Dodge D200 that originally had a 400, engine was gone before I got it. Consider the transmission a core. I have no idea if it works, but I’d doubt it, the torque converter has been out for unknown length of time. What you see in...

Mopar 318 and rebuilt 727 transmission Parted out a very rusty 1975 Dodge pickup and the power train is something I’m not going to need. The engine is not stuck but I’d still consider it a core because I haven’t had it running so I don’t know how good it is inside. The trans is rebuilt but I...

If you're going to work it hard, load it heavy and/or tow with it a lot the 3/4 springs will be appreciated. If it's going to be a driver (not a dedicated work truck) you'll hate life with the ride with the heavier springs.
