E body pedal in my Demon

I have a friend who needs the clutch/brake set up from an abody, and I am putting an automatic in my demon. He has the automatic brake pedal set up from his dads Cuda (i think its an E body, isn’t it?) Anyways, if i can swap them, then I can help him out and not be out anything. Will it work?
Thanks

Clunking Noise

Hey guys I got a quick question. I asked awhile ago which way the rotor is supposed to be mounted, in front or in back of the caliper. And they are supposed to be mounted up front. Mine, when I got the k-frame from the 73 they were mounted on the rear and I figured that was correct and didnt change them. Well there is a clicking or clunking noise everyone once in awhile. Sometimes it does it sometimes it wont. It sounds like the caliper (usually just the LF) being drug up and hit into…

ball joint

Im doing a 74 disc swap on a 71 duster. is there a upper ball joint that has the big pin that will still screw into a 71 upper arm? Is the 74 a bigger diameter thread size before I order it?

Mopar Brakes Go To Guy

OK everyone, I have been reading a lot of questions about Mopar brakes here lately, where to get parts, what is correct, etc. etc. I think it’s time to offer up a little information about a gentleman who I consider the go to guy when it comes to Mopar brakes. His name is Craig Studnick (aka. Americas Auto Parts King) He is out of New Jersey and he knows Mopar brakes like no other I have found. He is a wealth of information, he has all of the rare and hard to find parts from the 40’s right up…

Switching from front drums to manual disc
