    shifter boot

    I needed a shifter boot for my 84 Dodge D-100 with a A833 OD trans. I could not locate one by application. By searching by pictures, and dimensions I found the correct boot. It is OER Reproduction, part number MA760. I purchased through Summit. The vehicle listing is for a 1966-1976 "A" body ...

    Fuel gauge issue

    I don't remember the exact numbers, but the sending unit should read (with a ohm meter) about 60-70 ohms when empty. It should read about 10 ohms when full. How do you have it wired up? It looks to me like the Equus 7361 is correct. The factory gauge is wired up with 12v ign power to the CVR...

    Fuel gauge issue

    You keep saying "gauge". What did you get? The sender (goes in the tank) or the gauge (goes in the dash)? The Mopar sender (in the tank) should be about 70 ohms at empty, and about 10 ohms at full. Can you show us what you got? either a picture or what make and part number of the gauge?

    Fuel gauge issue

    Factory gauge sending units have the resistor windings not linear. Aftermarket sending units have the sending unit wound linear. this causes gauge reading problems. There is a device (meter match) that is supposed to fix this problem. I have never used one, so can't say how good they are...

    What to do

    A lot would depend on how you were going to use the truck. Best fuel milage would probably be with the 833OD. But without getting a "special" clutch, total load or towing load would be limited. A-500 for moderate loading and highway usage. The A-500 can be "beefed up" and the converter up...

    FOUND dash/instrument cluster trim/bezel

    The computer will just start to go in the cubby hole. But the opening tapers smaller as it gets deeper, and I am not sure about the wires. So I want to try it and if it doesn't work I still have my real nice one. The computer I have is a NOS unit like this. Zemco ZT-4 Driving Computer MPG MPH...

    FOUND dash/instrument cluster trim/bezel

    I can wait. I have other work to do on the truck. The one in the truck is fine, but I want to modify one and install a "driving computer" in that little cubby hole above the heater/AC controls. I just might ruin the piece.

    Hey parts vendors, how about INCLUDING A DECENT SET OF INSTRUCTIONS in with the stuff you sell?

    A couple of years ago, I bought something that needed to be assembled. On the box it said "before attempting assemble, please read the instructions". Opened the box, and there was a manila envelope with printing on the outside. "Instructions, please read before attempting assembly". On the front...

    Hey parts vendors, how about INCLUDING A DECENT SET OF INSTRUCTIONS in with the stuff you sell?

    I'm not open minded, and I AM a stubborn ass when it comes to that stuff. I have sent items back to the selling company, stating "parts missing", ie instructions.
